A Legacy of Hand-Blown Glass, Four Generations Strong
Hi there! We’re the family behind The Glassblowing Shops, and for us, glassblowing is more than a craft. It’s been our family’s passion for four generations.
It all started back in 1942 with Kathy’s father, John Cudequest. He was a true trailblazer in the world of glass, and one of the first to introduce live glassblowing demonstrations to the public in the late 1940s.
Today, our family, John and Kathy Warner, our sons Scott Warner and Chris Kennedy, and great-grandson Austin Cox continues to share this tradition with visitors from near and far. Every piece we make is shaped by fire, creativity, and a whole lot of heart.
We hope when you visit us whether you’re watching a piece come to life in a live demo or picking out the perfect handmade gift you feel the same sense of wonder that’s kept us doing this for over 80 years.
Thanks for being a part of our story.
