A cutting lesson is included so students need no previous experience. The emphasis will be on self-expression using art glass and students will make either a 12" round or an 8" X 14" rectangle for a lovely "make it and take it" project. A wide variety of patterns is available along with an inspirational portfolio of mosaic ideas. Taught by Dana Morrison in the studio.
Please call or email us for the schedule.
Come learn a new skill and have fun exploring your creative side.
Make a beautiful stained glass panel in just four weeks - size limited to a maximum of 14 x 20 inches for easy transporting. Students will be taught to work with glass and lead safely, cut and fit, solder, and apply finishing treatments. The instructor provides some materials and tools, but each student will need to purchase his/her own tools and project materials at a cost of $100-200, depending on project chosen. Tools and materials can be shared.
There will be a teacher assistant to insure plenty of help for all students.
This is a four-week class to refresh or upgrade your basic stained glass skills, including instruction in cutting, soldering, finishing and stained glass box making. Demonstrations in some of the latest technology using the newest glass saws and cutting tools will show how stained glass has become a lot easier to create. Some tools will be available for student use, however, each student will need his/her own tools and project materials.
Did you know that you can create your own beautiful art glass beads? Join us for an evening of creativity and learn how to form a variety of styles of beads with Italian glass moretti rods. Be warned, this is so much fun that it might be addictive! You will learn how to safely fire up your torch, set up your work space and learn basic bead making skills through demonstrations and hands-on practice. You may sign up for one or more sessions.
Students should wear closed-toed shoes and cotton clothing. Tools will be provided for use in class or you can purchase your own in advance. Materials fee covers tools and supplies used in class. Students will take home finished beads. No previous experience required.
