Programs

The classes, camps and experiences this business offers.

QUICKCAST: ANY AGE!

QuickCasts are for any age and make as a lifetime keepsake! You simply press your imprint into a sandbox (hand, foot, paw, figure and don't worry, it isn't hot!) with the help of a Hot Sand team member. Hot molten glass is then picked up and poured into your sandbox print, capturing the imprint; this is so neat to watch! Your imprint is then placed in our annealer to cool. All art glass must cool (anneal) for several days and may be picked up 7 days after you make it. Or you can make arrangements to have your pieces shipped. We’ll let you know the size, based on your imprint.

SUNTILE: 4 years and up

Make your day at the Shore a memorable one, when you create a glass memento.Fused, colored glass collage. This is a light experience, making a glass mosaic. With Hot Sand's SunTile activity, you arrange pre-cut pieces of colored glass onto one of our clear squares. You can make anything from a geometric design to your favorite figure!

BLOW-A-BUBBLE: SPOTTED or TWISTED AGES: 9+

Bubbles are round and hollow and usually sit flat, on the side you blow through (as in this picture). Comes with 1 color OR HS mix. Your breath blows it up!
