The Workshop
Your tutor, Dawn, is looking forward to meeting you and says: “I have been working with kiln formed glass for over 18 years, and teaching for 15 of those. I wanted to share my love for fused glass with as many people as possible and so I introduced ‘Glass On The Go’ – where I bring the creativity to you!
I believe passionately that everybody should have an opportunity to explore their inner artist. Getting creative is relaxing, mindful, great for your well-being, and you can make something beautiful in the process. I teach in a relaxed and organic way, showing you techniques, inspiring you with designs, but I encourage you to follow your own ideas.
During this evening workshop you can make either a postcard, two free-standing mini-waves or a handkerchief tea-light holder – just decide on the day!
All tools and equipment are provided and no glass cutting is involved, you just get to play with colourful accessory glass – the fun bit! Your creations are taken away to be fired in one of my specialist, digitally controlled glass kilns at my studio in Ilkeston, where I create my own unique glass art.
Your finished work will be returned to OCP at a later date (as arranged with Viv and Kate)”
What is the cost?
£45 + 0.94 card fee This includes all the materials needed to make your glass creation and refreshments during the evening.
How many places are available?
The group size is limited to 20 due to space constraints … we want everyone to have a comfortable amount of space whilst enjoying the buzz and excitment of creating with other like-minded people!
What are the timings?
This is a fun afternoon session, running from 6:30pm to 9pm.
Our purple front door will be open from 6pm so we can welcome you in, you can get to meet Dawn and your fellow crafters and grab a cuppa before you start.
What skills are needed?
No experience is necessary. It is possible for everyone to make a beautiful piece of glass, come and give it a go!
