“See the art of blowing glass”
Tim de Jong established Wimberley Glass Works in 1992. Since then, it has grown into one of the most premier glass studios in the region. Our goal is to educate, entertain and inform the public by offering free glassblowing demonstrations in a relaxed environment. The gallery is conveniently located next door, where the work is both original and affordable. Let us entice you with a brilliant exhibition of colorful glass. Whether your style reflects traditional, contemporary or whimsical, Wimberley Glass Works has something for everyone. Come see us soon for an enjoyable experience! After a tour of the studio, stroll next door to the gallery where you'll find an assortment of decorative and functional hand blown glass. We have a large selection of tasteful items ranging from tumblers and ornaments to unique sculptural vases. Each piece of glass is a handcrafted original with a style all of it's own. We invite you to visit our studio and observe the amazing process of glass blowing. The glassblowers are currently working Wednesday thru Saturday from approximately 10:30 to 12:30 and 1:30 to 4:30. There is no fee for watching the glassblowing demonstrations during these times, you can come and go at your convenience. Please check the website for current glassblowing schedules or call 800-929-6686 to verify demonstration availability. If you would like to schedule a demonstration for a group, we do set appointments so you can enjoy watching a piece made from start to finish. There is a $2 fee per person for set times.
Wimberley Glassworks was one of the highlights of our vacation. I'm not sure why it's rated $$$ as studio demonstrations were free when we were there. Obviously, there's a cost for items in the gallery/shop if you choose to buy something, but the prices are affordable, in fact, very reasonable for quality art glass. We bought a souvenir from our trip that we are sure to enjoy for years to come. The staff was friendly and went out of their way to show us around. You can watch the artisans at work and they explain the process as they go. They also stopped for questions after each project.
