PIE - Intro to Glass Workshop

  • WindHorse Arts/ Legion Hall Main Street Vinalhaven, ME 04863 United States (map)

Come make a suncatcher in our 2 hour fused glass workshop. An afternoon workshop introducing kiln-formed glass techniques.  After a basic introduction to glass and heat interaction, glass cutting, combining colors, firing, and annealing you will create your own design. 

Glass fusing is the melting together of compatible glass.  You will design and create a fused glass suncatcher and learn basic cutting techniques. During this class you will be working on a clear base sheet with small bits and pieces of colored glass held in place with a light adhesive to make your own unique design.  This simple piece will teach you the basics of fused glass.  I will bring your piece back to my studio and fuse it in my kiln and it will be ready for you to pick up at my studio on March 1.

No prior glass experience is necessary. All materials and tools will be provided.

Additional project(s) may be purchased at the workshop.

 

Studio Rules: Please note for your safety, closed toe shoes are mandatory.  I recommend sneakers or casual shoes because you will be both sitting and standing during class.  Beverages with a closed top are welcome, please no food. For the health and safety of others if you have active cold symptoms please stay home.  Thank you.
