| Beginning Glass Blowing does not require
glass working experience.
This class is intended
for beginners with little or no hot glass
experience. Emphasis is placed on the safe use of
the hot shop equipment and tools, as well as
fundamental team glass blowing skills and
techniques. You'll learn of gathering, marvering,
blowing and puntying. You'll practice and
complete a project each day. The final project
will be a blown glass ball decorated with color.
Tuition is $495 for four sessions, includes tools
and materials.

schedule for the next class.

Every week the student will create a
project
that can be taken home. |
