Hot shops is made up of four studios all dealing with fire to create sensational works of art. They specialize in glass blowing, sculpting with fire, pottery, and fabrication. Hot Shops hosts over 80 studio artists and multiple galleries that make it a diverse and collaborative environment. They offer classes on anything from painting and photography, to glass blowing.
