About the event

Glass Surface Design
This immersive workshop introduces surface design techniques that can be applied to glass-blown forms. Cold-finish work will introduce students to glass-finishing and texture methods, including sandblasting and wax resist techniques. Applying molten glass to an existing form will require hot shop teamwork and offer a range of colorful options. An overview of the hot shop essentials includes teamwork, terminology, safety, tools, and various working methods to build students’ knowledge and equip them with an understanding of the material and how to apply it to their own work. Demonstrations and directions will provide hands-on experience. This workshop will focus on expanding material awareness and developing skills to enhance the glass surface. Note: Proper attire is mandatory for working in the hot shop. Long pants, a comfortable t-shirt or long-sleeved shirt, and comfortable, closed-toed shoes. Please wear natural fibers (cotton), as synthetic fibers can melt at high temperatures. Please remove all jewelry from your hands and arms. Enrollment is limited—register early! Beginner to intermediate skill levels welcome.
