Annkris-Glass is a glass art studio where glass designers Kristi Ringkjob ja Anne-Liis Leht perform their artwork. Our studio, located in Baltica Kvartal, a ten-minute walk from the Old Town, has a cozy, warm and inspiring atmosphere. There is a creative element present in each of us and in our place you can discover your creative side and get acquainted with such a mysterious material as glass. Participants in our courses are not expected to have had any previous experience with glass. You can currently choose between three different techniques: a course in sand etching and engraving, a course in glass melting and a course in making an angel and a spruce tree in Tiffany technique.
