Blown glass art from Altare near Savona in Liguria
Ligurian glass art teachers are sought after around the world and they are in great demand, especially overseas. They are moving abroad to teach artists worldwide how to make glass doors and windows, artistic objects and various kinds of containers made by using the hand-blowing technique.The local heritage is an ancient tradition that can be admired in the Museum of Glass in the little town of Altare, near Savona; the museum is housed in a magnificent Art Nouveau building which enhances the beauty of the artworks collected inside.The museum is supported by multimedia tools that illustrate all the stages of the processing of blown glass. The venue also offers interactive courses that normally take place during the summer for young adults or anyone who wants to learn this art form. Such classes range from theory to practice in order to teach the basic techniques necessary to realize some blown glass objects.![170516margherita_p08](/activity/kwn/common/img/wp/en/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/170516margherita_p08.jpg)
