Kohala Artists' Cooperative - Final glass shaping

Definitely stop by Kohala Artists' Cooperative; it's just off the road, but you might miss it if…read moreyou're not looking. Inside, you'll find an eclectic collection of art from local artists. Some of the woodworkings and glass art are spectacular! There are loads of other items as well, each one unique and hand made. When we arrived, there was a glass-blowing workshop going on outside the cooperative, where a man was teaching a group of people how to make glass art, by melting the glass on a rod in the big hot oven, then blowing into the hollow tube to shape the glass, and fill it with air. This would be a fantastic way to spend a few hours, if you're creative and don't mind the heat of the oven. They'll even ship your finished work of art to you if you're not around, in the day or so after it dries and cools.

This is a cute co-op featuring artwork from 20+ local artists, from photography to ceramics. If you…read morehave the time, I recommend signing up ahead for a glass-blowing class. The skilled glassblowers, Matthew and Carolyn will guide you through the process of making your own custom glass object. This is an excellent group activity as you watch and encourage each other as you make your objects in turn. A unique experience to say the least, and your final reward is a keepsake to commemorate the experience for years to come. This was the highlight of my last Big Island trip.
