Workshop Descriptions (*New course).


Copper Overlay Silhouettes
June 12, 10am-4pm, $65
Remember that piece of glass you saw that would be a shame to cut up it’s so lovely? Use copper foil overlay to transpose a landscape, abstract or stylized silhouette onto your favourite piece of glass and you won’t have to. Each piece will be framed in a brass ring. Each student will need 1 piece of Art Glass, no larger then 12”x16”.


*Traditional Glass Painting
with Jackie Seymour
June 19, 10am-4pm, $195
Since first learning with Kathy Irwin, Jackie has been captivated by the ornamental and pictorial designs achieved with traditional glass painting. Calligraphy, scroll work and crests have become her specialty. Join her for a fun day of family crest creation. If you have one, great, bring it in, if not, design your own. Materials included. See Jackie’s demo at our art show Sunday, May 9, 1pm.


IEyeball Mania*
Saturday, June 5, 1-2pm, $20
Use our system 96 glass, thinfire paper, and duraboard to create as many fused “eyeballs” as you can on a 6” X 12” surface.


Design Your Own Art Glass*
Saturday, June 12, 1-2pm $40
Using our System 96 glass powders, frit, confetti, and stringers, create your own unique square foot of art glass. Once fired it can be cut and incorporated into another fused or traditional project.

Gain access to our Bullseye 90coe scrap and create as many tack fired Doohickeys as you can fit on a square foot piece of duraboard. Great for box lids, picture frames and your mosaic creations.
