Hi Jen,
Welcome to planDisney! I have also always been fascinated with the art of glass blowing. It is super cool to see these artists in action and I love that they are often featured right on Main Street in Magic Kingdom.
Crystal Arts by Arribas Brothers in Magic Kingdom is a beautiful shop with so many precious souvenirs to bring home. They also have live glass-blowing demonstrations that are sure to inspire you to bring one of these one-of-a-kind souvenirs home. Unfortunately, they do not post a schedule for when live demonstrations will be happening. If you stop by this store on your way into the theme park and chat with a cast member, they should be able to tell you when to come back for that day's demonstration. While you are here shopping for souvenirs, don't forget to check out the personalized silhouette art. This is another fabulous souvenir that can be cherished for years to come.
Since your visit is coming up soon, don't forget to check out the
EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival which is in full swing right now. The food is a decadent tour around the world with small bites and drinks at booths throughout the theme park. I love trying as many things as possible by splitting food with my friends or family. There is also an
Eat to the Beat Concert Series that features popular old and new artists and is a blast for the whole family. During your visit, you fly away to the classic songs of Sugar Ray on September 1st and 2nd.
If you didn't find what you were looking for at Magic Kingdom's Crystal Arts, there is another Arribas Bros store in EPCOT with a fabulous selection of glasswork and customizable wands, crowns, or glasses.
Happy Planning,
Jenna
