Make your own sea glass hurricane lamp

This beginner-friendly workshop led by local artist Val Hesketh of The Paper Garden will take you through all the steps and leave you with your very own unique piece of handmade art.

Taking inspiration from the stunning stained glass windows here in Blackpool, you will have a choice of using a recycled glass jar/ bottle or using a traditional metal and glass lamp to make the finished product, which you can take home with you.

This workshop is suitable for age 16+.

Tickets £2.50

This activity is part of ‘Handmade High Street’, a series of creative workshops organised by Blackpool Heritage Action Zone (Blackpool HAZ).
