An Introduction to Leaded Stained Glass
Instructor: Marc Rotman
Saturday, June 28 & Sunday, June 29 | 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Two-Part Workshop | Ages 16+
Now that you’ve mastered the copper foil method of Stained Glass, it’s time to learn about the age-old method of lead came. In this introductory class, you will work along with the instructor to build a small leaded glass panel, learning the process along the way. You will be able to select art glass of your choice for your project, but everyone in class will be using the same design to build along with the instructor. We will cover lead stretching, cutting and forming, as well as soldering of lead joints and framing with lead. And, finally, the instructor will demonstrate the cementing and cleaning process, and you will complete this process in class. All materials will be provided by Instructor. *Please advise the instructor if you are pregnant, nursing, or have respiratory concerns and the class will be slightly adjusted to provide an increased level of comfort and safety.
Prerequisite: Students must have completed a beginner-stained glass class and/or have basic experience with glass cutting, copper foil, and soldering.
