Saturday at the Glass Studio

Jan 12, 2013

We offer a free glass art demo every day at noon.

On the class calendar for today:

• One-Day Workshop: Glass Fusing (Fused Plate)
From design to cutting, from layout to firing in the kiln, our Studio staff will give you an overview of the fusing process and guide you through the creation of your own work of art. This workshop runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and you can sign up online here. This workshop is also offered on Saturday, March 9, and Saturday, April 13. ($90 Members, $115 all others.)

• Two-Hour Class: Introduction to Flameworking
From 2-4 p.m. today, come get a taste of an addicting form of glass art—the molding of glass by way of a torch. In introductory classes you make beads and marbles as a way to learn the craft. You can then advance your skills by taking atwo-night course that moves you from beads to figures (offered Jan. 23, Feb. 6 and 13, March 6 and 13). If you do well at that, you can then consider a two-day workshop called Blowing on the Torch that will be offered March 16-17. After that you can start looking at booking private time and calling yourself a Jedi master. To sign up for this first step, click here. ($40 Members, $60 all others).
