Stained Glass: Valentine’s and Saint Patrick’s Edition
February 2 @ 10:00 am - 2:00 pm
Pick from several Valentines or St. Patrick’s themed suncatcher patterns. Then completely customize it into a one of a kind piece using an assortment of glass colors, textures and transparencies. You’ll learn how to cut glass, grid it to fit the pattern, apply copper foil, solder it all together and finish it off with a Hobby Came frame. This is a beginners class, perfect for anyone that’s curious about the process and techniques that go into making Tiffany Style Stained Glass.
Please wear close-toed shoes and natural fibers like cotton/wool (jeans and a t-shirt work great). All long hair should be pulled back.
Age 10+, under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian.
General Admission will be available on September 24th after 5 pm; to get early access to all remaining 2024 workshops click here.
