2026 Glass Pumpkin Patch
A two-day seasonal event featuring handcrafted glass pumpkins, live glassblowing demonstrations, and interactive glass-making activities.
Foci Minnesota Center for Glass Arts invites the public to explore a spectacular array of handcrafted glass pumpkins during the 2026 Glass Pumpkin Patch. This all-ages seasonal event features a variety of unique masterpieces created by local artisans, perfect for early holiday shopping or seasonal home decor. Entry to the event is free, and light refreshments will be provided.
Throughout the weekend, visitors can enjoy free glassblowing demonstrations running all afternoon. These demonstrations provide a first-hand look at the process of creating blown glass pumpkins, with seating provided for spectators.
For those seeking a more hands-on experience, the "Design Your Own Glass Pumpkin" activity allows participants to work with a professional glassblower to select the color, stem style, and design of their very own pumpkin. After selecting the features, participants can watch their pumpkin be created in real time. This activity costs $50.00 per pumpkin and requires online pre-registration. Completed pumpkins are typically ready for pickup within five days. Please note that individuals under 14 are required to attend with a parent or legal guardian.
An ASL interpreter will be onsite for the Saturday portion of the event.
