Glass Blowing Studio / Plane Watching in Grapevine

Vetro Glass Blowing Studio is an amazing experience. Watch artisans create their creations from a small stadium seated viewing area as they created flowers, ornaments and more. My family and I have been fascinated by this lovely craft for years. After the exhibition, we will walk around Grapevine's historic square, perhaps enjoying a bite of fudge from the chocolatier and taking a spin through the toy store. Afterwards, we will head over to the nearby Founders Plaza:

"Over the years, Founders' Plaza has become a favorite spot for families, aviation enthusiasts and Airport employees. The Observation Area offers magnificent views of many types of aircraft as they take off and land."

Three hours of fun and education with your friends and our volunteers!
