Creative Escape with Fred Buxton at The Glass Underground
As a passionate enthusiast, taking the fused glass class with Fred Buxton at The Glass Underground in New Jersey was a true highlight for me! Travelling with my sister Jill from just 1.5 hours north of Toronto, Ontario, the journey was a combination of so many heartfelt experiences. Being able to spend time with Jill and then experiencing this creative path was a dream.
Upon arriving at The Glass Underground, we were immediately taken by the warm and welcoming Meryl (what a gem!! xo). The studio itself is spacious and brimming with inspiring and knowledgeable staff – Kristin, Erik, Eric and Doug – what a team – thank YOU all! This is the kind of environment that sparks creativity the moment you step in.
Fred Buxton, our instructor, was nothing short of phenomenal. With a deep knowledge of glass fusing and an infectious passion for landscapes, Fred made the complex techniques accessible to everyone. His teaching style is very hands-on, providing personal attention to each student and ensuring that everyone can follow along. Fred fostered a collaborative environment that made everyone feel like part of a creative community. We shared ideas, supported each other’s projects, and celebrated our progress together. The five-day course was structured beautifully, and each day was filled with new learning opportunities.
The Glass Underground itself is equipped with all the tools and materials you could need! The facility is clean, well-maintained, and just a perfect backdrop for getting lost in your art.
I left the workshop with not just a new set of skills and techniques but a beautiful piece of my own making and a renewed inspiration for fused glass art. This class is a must for anyone interested in learning glass fusing in a supportive, fun, and highly educational environment. I can’t wait to return and dive deeper into the world of glass!
See you in February 2025 Glass Underground friends! Give Georgie a pet for me!

I look forward to flying back to take another workshop soon. Very well organized and plenty of excellent quality equipment.

I'm so impressed by the care they take in packaging. I have never received a glass sheet that is broken as I have from other places I have ordered from . I place my order and it is received quickly and on time. They know what they are doing and do it efficiently. I can rely on them. I just started ordering from them in then last few months. They have a new loyal customer in me.

Can't say enough about this place. I contacted The Glass Underground regarding a one-off non-artistic glass project, and the whole staff was very patient with me, who knows next to nothing about glass, and helped me to cut 40 odd pieces of jalousie window glass, rescuing a project that appeared to be hopeless. Many, many thanks!

I just finished the most complex amazing class at The Glass Underground. It was taught by the artistically talented, perfectionistically technical Ian Chadwick who is also an outstanding instructor. It’s a trifecta of glass experience at Meryl’s wonderful and extensive studio. Warm thanks to both Ian and Meryl.

Meryl is the perfect teacher! She makes newcomers feel at ease and is always ready with a smile. Her knowledge of fused glass seems limitless! The facility is top- notch too.
