And the main family event…
🎅 Santa’s Bauble Workshop
December 6 & 13
Step into the magic of Christmas at Santa’s Winter Wonderland Workshop – a festive experience where tradition, creativity, and a little sparkle come together!
Fun for all ages! Every ticket includes the chance to meet Santa, design and decorate your very own handmade glass bauble, which have been crafted by Allister Malcolm Glass and his team. Each bauble is unique – and with your creative touch, it becomes even more special.
A free festive drink is included for every ticket holder.
After meeting Santa, you are guided to the Elves’ Workshop where they can decorate their bauble with stickers and festive cheer.
Our elves will then sandblast the baubles, creating magical frosty patterns – while you watch the transformation!
To make it truly one of a kind, a resident glass artist our resident Christmas Fairy – Terri-L. Colledge, will hand-engrave your bauble with a name or short message, turning it into a keepsake you’ll treasure forever – an heirloom decoration to bring out year after year, or a heartfelt gift for someone you love.
Every ticket sold helps raise vital funds for the charity that supports Stourbridge Glass Museum, preserving the region’s world-renowned glassmaking heritage for future generations. By taking part, you’re not only making Christmas memories – you’re supporting a community and tradition that’s been shining here for centuries. We are delighted to share that our bauble workshop is proudly supported by The Worshipful Company of Glass Sellers and The Glass Society
