About

Class canceled due to instructor being ill. 5/15/23 SK

Learn how to use recycled glass materials to create unforgettable fused-glass art.

About this Class

A used shower door that was headed for the landfill will be used to create two minimalist items - a trivet and an 8-inch bowl or plate.

Learn how to safely shatter the glass and turn the pieces into a functional form. A discussion about other ways to use glass destined for the landfill in fused glass art is part of this class, too.

Bring along a creative and patient mind and a notebook to take notes. The process is described as Zen-like as it is similar to working with a jigsaw puzzle.

Great for beginners interested in exploring the medium of glass.

Details

Wear close-toed shoes and long pants in the Glass Studio at all times.

Materials

A materials fee included in the price of the class covers all the materials needed for the class.
