A field trip they won’t forget! 🔥

Custer County High School students recently had the opportunity to visit Brice Turnbull’s glassblowing studio in Salida with art instructor Kim.

During the field trip, students got a behind the scenes look at the art of glassblowing, learned about the process, and created beautiful pieces of their own.

Take a look at these amazing creations!

A big thank you to Kim for organizing this experience and to Brice Turnbull for welcoming the students into his studio and sharing his craft.
