    The instructors are friendly, passionate about their craft and my 14-year old who has adhd felt very welcome and ended up enjoying the experience and would love to come back! It's a unique facility with experts in the field patiently guiding and going over the step-by-step process in the art and craft of glassblowing.

    We attended a glass blowing class here. Wonderful time we had. The instructors were very knowledgeable patient and skilled. We will definitely go back next time we are in town. Fun unique activity for people of all ages.

    Our level one class with Robert was so much fun and, in a city with a LOT of things to do, this was a great escape from the busy strip. We got a quick tour of the studio and then immediately got to work! Robert demonstrated everything step by step, explaining both the science and the artistry to what we were doing and even coached us when to get the perfect picture for the 'gram Once we were ready to try our hands, Robert was a great instructor and had the perfect balance of hands on instruction and stepping back to let us fly solo. I would highly recommend the experience as a fun, reasonably priced, daytime activity to do while in Vegas!

    We went here for a glass blowing class and WOW!! Greg was such a patient and great instructor! We each made a cork stopper and a glass pendant with color added. Greg even made us and icicle that we can make our next class! I'm coming back again for sure! Thank you Greg for such an amazing class!

    Glass class!

    We had such an amazing time at Le Francis for our glass-blowing lesson! The team was so friendly and patient, and the experience was unlike anything we've done before. We met with Greg, Tom & Aaron! Whether you're planning a Vegas date night, a fun office trip, or just looking for a new creative adventure -- this is such a unique idea to try. Highly recommend!

    What a fun experience! I encourage anyone with the slightest interest to take the introductory class.

    What an amazing and fun experience I had with my girlfriend. We enjoyed the thrill it had, knowing it was a bit dangerous and new to us. Robert explained the process perfectly. He made sure we were having fun along the way and not taking it too serious :) We will definitely be coming back to take the next classes! We even got to keep what we created!

    We had a fantastic time at LeFrancis Studios! Greg and his team are exceptionally kind, welcoming and friendly. The space itself is really cool, with an awesome display room and an open, spacious studio floor. Greg is the ultimate teacher - kind, patient, funny and easy to follow. When doing something new for the first time, it can be overwhelming if you have a teacher who can't communicate well. But Greg explained clearly, then was side by side with us through each step of our class. We left really happy with beautiful pieces we enjoyed making and a few gifts from Greg and his team. 10/10 lovely experience! Thanks Greg + team!

    Had an amazing time as a family and we have some beautiful gifts to bring home. The only sad thing is we live so far away and can't come back every month!

    Love this place!! I just took my first glass blowing class at LeFrancis Studios. It was so much fun. The staff was so great to work with and made the experience easy to learn. Working with Tom, Robert, and Greg was a blast! We made little wine cork toppers and ornaments. They also have a store with handmade glass items that are very reasonably priced. If you take a class, you can purchase your next class at a discount if you buy it at the end of your class. I cannot wait for my second class. This would be a great place to host a small party or work event.

    Our pieces cooling after being carefully instructed how to make them.

    Had my first of (at least) three lessons at the studio today! LOVED it. Tom was super-kind and took us through a brief history of the studio. Robert, a 40-year artisan of glass work, showed us how to make our wine stoppers and pendants. I can't wait to get back here to make our icicles and marbles. The glass animals aren't that far behind. It had just enough danger to make it thrilling, more than enough supervision to keep me feeling extremely comfortable throughout. They have beautiful works available for purchase in their showroom and some amazing graphic tees to make sure others note your swagger when you go out wearing them. Loved this experience and I'm looking forward to going back in the weeks to come!

    Highly recommend!!! My dad and I did the introductory class for a Father's day gift. We both loved it! Robert did a great job teaching us the techniques and steps to make the leaf design, then guided us individually as we completed our own. I am looking forward to going back and completing more projects.

    Took the beginner glass class today, and it was so fun! The class was really instructive, and the employees didn't just show us how to do it, but talked about the science behind it, and were there for help whenever we needed it. This is definitely a must do for anyone interested in glass work, great date idea, and even for small group functions. They also have professionally done glass work for sale, and even without the Groupon discount made is very affordable!

I reached out to this business and sadly learned that there are no places in town that teach this skill. This business does offer other classes working with fused glass so I decided to sign up for one. The cost for my class was only $40 which I thought was very reasonable. Although I am not in this part of town often, the studio was easy to find parking was plentiful in their lot. This business is broken into two areas. When you enter, you are in the gallery and there are various artists featured along with their pieces. Very impressive. In the back of the studio is where all the glass art is created. There are kilns, tools, workbenches etc. My friend and I signed up to create a colorful heart this past Saturday morning. We were warmly greeted by Don who checked us in and then we patiently waited for the class to begin. Barbara and Larry (owners) took us back into the working part of the studio and we all found our places around two tables. Since we were handling glass, we had to wear gloves for safety. The purpose of the class was to create a mosaic style heart/paperweight. There were two large trays at each table filled with colorful, fused glass. After trying various sizes of the glass, I was finally able to finish creating my design and considered my heart masterpiece completed. Larry was extremely informative and helpful throughout the class as was Barbara. I learned from Larry about their extensive involvement with our community. They had just recently held an event for the Candlelighters Childhood Cancer Foundation. I love a small business that gives back and it makes me want to support them even more. Both Barbara and Larry display a real passion for what they do and enjoy sharing it with others. Larry expressed to me how addicting creating this kind of art an be and I totally believe him. After our hearts were created, they would now be placed in the kiln for firing. Barbara advised all of us that as soon as our hearts were ready, we would be notified and able to pick them up. I have been looking for a creative outlet and I believe I will be back taking more classes and learning more about working with fused glass.

Robert, the instructor, has created delicate pieces for English royalty. Some of his pieces are on display in the shop. It was quite a shock when he told me I could eventually create such beauty, but it would be necessary for me to start small. He showed me how to make leaves, then the body of a swan. He said I'd be making the leaves today and the swan next time. I was actually able to make two fairly respectful leaves all by myself. Robert is a great instructor, and this was one of the greatest presents I'd ever been given. I will definitely be returning for further lessons.

I went to the website and saw that they had a free day ( first Sat of the month) This museum was built in 2002 and is like a large gallery named for the solo artist Rita Deanin Abbey.

The museum, which opened in 2022, honors Rita Deanin Abbey and presents a large selection of her art. Rita was an art professor at UNLV for over 20 years before retiring and devoted all her time to create art. On this property, it initially contained her home, art studio and sculpture garden before Rita and her husband built the 10,500 sq ft museum. Rita is known for her abstract expressionism, figures, landscapes, and non-objective subject matter that is expressed through paintings, drawings, prints, sculptures, porcelain enamel fired on steel, stained glass and computer art. A docent gave us a tour of facility and sculpture garden. But we were the only ones in the museum so we able to enjoy the peacefulness and admire and be mesmerized by the artwork. If you enjoy art, a visit to this fabulous museum is a must visit if you're visiting Vegas.
