    Beautiful bowl

    Harmony Glass Works is an amazing place to wander and gawk. The beauty and the colors of the various glass arts were unbelievable. Just be sure to keep your purse or backpack tucked up. My Sister, for my 70th Birthday, bought me a session with Nate to learn to blow glass. Under his very patient directions I made a beautiful bowl! It takes hard work and so much knowledge to be able to teach this skill to someone in one lesson. And at the end you have a beautiful piece of art to take home with you. I have wanted to have a lesson for years and it was so worth it. Nate is amazing and I would highly recommend having him share his skill and expertise with you while you take a lesson from him.

    On our way to Cambria we stopped in Harmony to check out this small city. The Glassworks store is one of the stops here. It's such an amazing place selling hand blown glass products such as jewelry, cups, pictures, vases and much more. So many colors and shapes. So much to see and chose from. I purchased a miniature glass penguin and love it. So unique and cute. Customer service not so friendly, I don't know why .. had the same problem at the coffee shop and the ice cream truck.

    Located in the tiny town of Harmony, California (population 18), just off Hwy 1, is the home of Harmony Glassworks. The gallery/studio showcases a large selection of all types of glass art for sale, from jewelry to vases, from candies to large sculptures, and everything in between. The selection is extensive in all price ranges. The glass artworks are worth the visit just to admire the talents of the mostly local artisans. There is a production area/working studio area to view artists at work. Harmony Glassworks also offers one on one on-site instruction for those ages 12 & up, to create a glass vase or bowl. Contact the studio by phone or book on-line for this educational & fun personal experience. The staff is very friendly and helpful with any questions one might have.

    The Harmony Glass Works is in Harmony, an easily overlooked stop off Hwy 1, just before Cambria. Well worth the stop. The Glass Works offers all sorts of hand blown glass objects, from tumblers to flowers. All the objects are lovely and crafted in the shop. The artisans work at furnaces walled off from the retail store, but easily in view of shoppers. See your gift being blown! Prices are a bit high for our mass production world, but reasonable for hand crafted artwork!

    You must go to Harmony Glassworks if you're anywhere nearby. We've purchased many items from here over the years! We love the rainbow wind chime with the glass panels attached to local driftwood that we've had for years. Harmony Glassworks offer wide variety of "wait, that's glass!?" items as well as everyday items like earrings, nail files, and magnets. SO MANY glass items to see (and buy). My daughter & I just took our first glassblowing class with Nate, and it was nothing short of incredible. Nate is kind, patient, a great listener and above all an EXCEPTIONAL teacher. Throughout the process, he validated us by saying,"that looks great," or "you're doing great," or "that looks perfect." Before the class began, Nate told us what we would do, how he would maneuver the glass, and all the ways to keep safe during the process. My daughter and I were both scared to mess up or drop the glass, but Nate helped us to see that he'd help us however we needed to ensure we had a beautiful vase at the end of our class. And we do!! Book your own class - go online to https://www.harmonyglassworks.com/classes.html I definitely would do this again! As much as I love having this object we created together, I really feel like Nate is the treasure here. This experience is unique and extremely valuable because of Nate's expertise and approach. He is patient and repeats the instructions as many times you need them. He is not annoyed by someone (like me) who asks the same question over and over. Nate's care for his craft and his class is obvious from the first handshake to the final moments.

    Extensive supply of all things glass. From rings to yard art, you can spend an hour admiring all the artistic designs. We bought a great rainbow wind spinner, and wanted more, but restrained ourselves. You can watch them blow the glass, located in a serene setting. Pleasant service, okay prices.

    I been to this place several times over the years. But this time I came for glass blowing lessons with my kids. The three of us each did our own lessons and the process for booking the lessons was very easy. I spoke and worked with Eric, Colton, and Nate(artist/instructor), they were phenomenal very professional, helpful, and great to work with. My kid and I had a blast, it's amazing to create something so unique and beautiful that is truly inspiring by one's creative mind and see the end result once it was ready. Nate instructed us individually as we each had our lesson, explaining safety, how the process and all the steps that go into creating a piece. We will definitely be returning and sharing with everyone, because this is truly a lost art, like so many others. Thank you to everyone at Harmony Glassworks for an incredible experience that we won't forget.

    We had a wonderful experience and the instructor was patient and had a great amount of knowledge

    This was a great experience! I learned a ton, and Nate did an amazing job of walking us through the process. I could write a very long winded eloquently craft essay on this lovely portion of a recent trip to California. If you're anywhere San Luis Obispo, make your way to Harmony it's a cool place to check out.

    Cute little shop where you can watch the glassblower at work. Book ahead for glass blowing lessons. This town also has a pottery shop which sells amazing home made soaps and an ice cream truck. Get here early because the truck closes at 4. You can also book weddings, bar mitzvahs, quicineras and graduation parties at their outdoor gazebo. Fun stop after Hearst Castle or Cambria

    I'm not going to lie, this is tucked away in a tiny town of only 18. I thought it might give me flashbacks and nightmares about my childhood growing up in a tiny town. But nope! This was the PERFECT place I came up here and stocked up on tons of wine from all the wineries up here and came across all these beautiful wine toppers. I hope none of my BFFs see this, because they will literally know their upcoming birthday and Christmas gifts. This place is awesome, they have an open area where you can watch the glass pieces be blown and they even have lessons where you can make your own (I don't know any of the details such as prices and what you get to learn / make) so I'd definitely call them ahead of your visit to plan accordingly. They have everything from ornaments, paperweights, yard decorations, glass pens, little glass animal figurines, vases, jewelry, marbles, beads and etc The customer service was beyond outstanding. I was so nervous coming into a place like this with my dog (she's in a stroller) but they were so dog friendly and amazing. Normally when I go to galleries and places like this in Laguna beach the place can be so stuffy and the people can be so rude. If you are ever in this area I highly recommend stopping by! They even have a little discount area attached to the side of the building. Some items were 25 dollars instead of 75. But then there was even bigger pieces such as vases and lamp bases that were 75 dollars but normally in the high hundreds. I actually came here today, got 5 miles down the road and decided to turn around to get a couple things to send to my dad

    Nate and I with my finished bowl.

    Nate is not only a very gifted artisan he is a good teacher as well. He explained everything before we started then went over it again as we worked on my piece. This is something I've wanted to do for years and I couldn't be happier with the experience or my finished piece.

    I had the pleasure of attending private lessons this weekend, taught by Nate, and it was truly an amazing experience. Nate is not only kind and patient, but he also takes the time to explain everything thoroughly, making the learning process both fun and enjoyable. My son, who is typically quite shy, felt completely at ease thanks to Nate's gentle and welcoming approach. Over the course of the two-hour class, my son created two beautiful pieces, and I can't wait to see the final product. We're already excited to return! I highly recommend Harmony Glassworks to everyone--especially since they welcome children as young as 7! Worth the price!

The professional staff is extremely welcoming and knowledgeable.

Even worse, the AI art is mixed in with the actual art, clearly in an attempt to trick potential buyers into believing the con. Even when it's put in its own section they label it simply as "digital art" which is obviously misleading. Adding to this, a lot of the AI art is "authored" by one Thad Markham, who on further inspection is the owner of the gallery. This is absolutely heinous. AI art isn't just digital, it's an algorithmic Frankenstein of thousands of real artists. AI art is theft, and it's incredibly disappointing to see it in a gallery like this.
