Self-made glass figurines and beads? Visit the workshop of glassblower Jitka Havlíčková – Prague 6
Are you creative? And have you tried to make something out of glass? You will have this unique opportunity on Saturday, January 28 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at OC Šestka in Prague’s Ruzyna. The artist Jitka Havlíčková, who has been working for more than 20 years, is preparing a creative workshop with the production of glass beads and figurines for you. Do you know how to work with glass? It’s not entirely easy, but it’s definitely worth trying because there aren’t many similar opportunities. The organizer herself, the artist Jitka Havlíčková, invites to the fun and knowledge workshop. “You’ll see when it flows, when it flows, and when it doesn’t want to.
You will find out how to decorate with glass thread, how to create a glass navel on the surface of a bead, or how to make glass eyes. However, don’t be too hard on yourself and don’t expect more than one or two small creations. If you decide on a bead, for example, your idea can be given within 30 minutes of instruction. You will also have bead sleeves to choose from, so you end up with a complete piece of glass jewelry. Your little treasure, which you can give to someone.” The workshop is more suitable for adults and children from 8 years old, so that they can see well through the kahan and reach the work. Younger children can work with an older one or use the children’s corner where they can play with toys. Or a modeling workshop will be available with the possibility to model a figure at least from a model. Those who are interested can hand over their original 3D design to be realized in glass and make an additional appointment for collection.
The place will also be decorated with Jitka Havlíčková’s creations – hanging moss planets with faces, moss with miniature inhabitants, glass earrings and beads. You can buy anything that interests you.
The workshop takes place on Saturday, January 28, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. in the Šestka Shopping Center on the 1st floor (between the Humanic and New Yorker stores), directly above SKY GALLERY ŠESTKA.
