Fused Glass for Absolute Beginners - Michelle Weston

(This is a one day workshop. It will be offered three times.)

November 14, 15 & 16 (Friday, Saturday & Sunday)

9 AM – 4 PM (one hour break for lunch)

Teaching and materials fee - $150

Location – The Glass Studio, 217 Adams Street, Berea (Google map)

Signup limited to 8 participants

No previous experience necessary

 

Learn about the process of glass fusing from design and cutting to kiln preparation. Participants will use a glass etching process to "draw" an image in dichroic glass and then use that image to create a fused glass pendant. Kiln firing schedules and annealing will be covered. Each student will be able to make two pendants or earrings. Class time is from 9 am to 4 PM. The kiln will be fired at 4 PM. Students are able to stay for the firing process (approx 2.5 hours). Bring a bag lunch or enjoy our local cafes (in walking distance). For questions about the class, click here to email Michelle.
