At Elev8 Veterans, we believe in the power of healing through creativity, focus, and community. As part of our mission to educate and advocate for healthy alternative healing methods, we proudly offer glassblowing classes for veterans. This hands-on art form not only introduces veterans to a unique craft but also provides a powerful tool for managing stress, improving focus, and rediscovering a sense of purpose.
A Mission Rooted in Healing
Elev8 Veterans is more than an organization; it’s a movement. We embrace a higher state of mind, body, and spirit, inviting veterans from all branches, genders, and spiritual affiliations to join us. Our goal is to provide alternative healing methods that empower veterans to thrive in life beyond service. Glassblowing is one such method, offering veterans a creative outlet to find calm, focus, and connection.
How Glassblowing Helps Veterans
The process of glassblowing is mesmerizing, challenging, and therapeutic all at once. Working with molten glass demands patience, precision, and intense focus—all of which can help veterans develop healthy coping mechanisms for dealing with the challenges of everyday life. Here’s how:
- Focus and Mindfulness: In glassblowing, you must be fully present. The process requires careful attention to detail, helping veterans quiet the mind and remain focused on the task at hand. This mindfulness can reduce anxiety and improve mental clarity.
- Stress Relief: The creative process is inherently calming. Shaping glass provides a productive way to channel energy and emotions, helping veterans manage stress or trauma.
- Building Confidence: Seeing a finished piece—something you’ve created with your own hands—brings an incredible sense of accomplishment. It’s a reminder of one’s ability to grow, adapt, and create beauty out of life’s challenges.
- Community and Connection: Our classes foster an inclusive, welcoming environment where veterans can connect with others who understand their experiences. Glassblowing becomes more than just art—it’s a shared journey of healing and camaraderie.

Why Glassblowing?
Glassblowing is a metaphor for life itself—transforming raw materials into something beautiful, strong, and unique.
