About

Here's your chance to learn how to create a stained-glass panel in easy steps. This class goes way beyond our one-day  "Try It!" offerings as you get to take five weeks to create a Victorian-inspired panel in the colors you prefer. You can choose the design pictured here, or choose another option from basic Victorian designs offered by the instructor. If you have some experience, and a simple design in mind, bring it to the first meeting.

Stained glass has been used for thousands of years. Some stained-glass windows in Britain have been traced back to the 7th century. Victorian-era (1837-1901) stained glass was a popular feature of Victorian houses, often used in doors and windows to personalize homes.

You'll also learn the various ways stained glass is assembled and choose the method most appropriate to your creation, including skills like cutting glass, shaping forms, and sanding to fit. 

Project

You will create a rectangular panel about 8 inches by 12 inches with approximately 30 pieces of glass. You'll frame your panel, and prepare it for hanging. 

Materials

A $30 materials fee, included in the cost of the class, will provide everything you need to make the panel.

Class Policies

  • Ages 14 and up are welcome.
  • Long pants and closed-toe shoes are required in the Glass Arts Studio at all times.
