Fused Glass Class: Beginner Fusing 101

Glass Fusing is a fascinating media, you can shape it, stack it, weave it or melt it into a puddle! Each student will be exposed to the glass fusing process in this introductory class. No experience necessary and no glass cutting will be required for this intro level class. In this hands-on class, students will be introduced to the medium of glass, the steps and types of fusing, tools, terminology, and more. Students will make 3 projects. This class is required for those interested in participating in Intermediate Fusing Workshops, which are held weekly on Tuesdays. Students are encouraged to bring a beverage and a snack or lunch when classes interfere with their normal eating times. There is a drinking fountain in the hall, but there are no vending machines on site.

MATERIALS & TOOLS:

Due to the nature of this class, at brief periods of time students may be working with glass powders. This being the case, we ask students to bring an N-95 mask for safety. This mask will be worn while handling the glass powders and isn’t required to be worn for the whole class. The studio will have a limited number of respirators and disposable masks available for class use, however, if you are able to bring a personal safety mask, this would be recommended. Other than personal safety masks, all materials and tools will be provided by the Instructor, Nell Trask, or by the Arts Center.

FIRING POLICY:

The projects will be fired and available for pick up at Sangre de Cristo Art Center in 7 - 10 days following the conclusion of your class, unless otherwise specified by your instructor.
