Summer Stained Glass Class
Date: Session 1: Wednesday, Aug 13, from 1-3:30 PM
Session 2: Wednesday, August 20 from 1-3:30 PM
This summer, create your own beach-inspired stained glass seashell! A condensed two-day beginner workshop will introduce you to the fine art of Tiffany-style stained glass.
All materials will be provided, including glass, patterns, tools, and equipment.
Session 1: An introduction to stained glass; students will choose from 6 unique seashell patterns and an assortment of beautiful stained glass to complete their projects. Students will have hands-on experience using tools to score and cut glass and will complete a rough layout of their glass projects.
Session 2: A brief tutorial on the history of stained glass, the different types of glass, and stained-glass styles. A short video will be shown on how sheets of stained glass are made. Students will then learn the Tiffany method of copper foiling and preparing their projects for soldering. Each piece of glass will be edged with copper foil and students will be amazed at how their projects transform into beautiful works of art!
Grinding and soldering will be completed by the instructor. Completed projects will be available for pick-up at Infloressense after August 27.
Let's get creative!
