Relax and unwind as you get creative and make something unique and functional in Jenie Yolland's glass art workshop for beginners.
With small classes, you'll receive one-on-one attention, while you make your very own colourful plate in art glass! With guidance from expert Jenie herself, you'll learn new skills to help you make a piece of fused glass art.
No previous experience is required. It's fun and creative here in the studio! You can use any of the colours that are here in my studio on the day of your class.
During the workshop you will learn:
  • The basic and correct skills required to use glass as an artistic medium
  • The fundamentals of glass cutting
  • The fabulous potential of glass fusing and slumping
  • About art glass and how it performs in the kiln
If you're looking for unique things to do in Melbourne, then this glass art workshop would be a great pick for you! Not only will you leave with new skills and the confidence to try new artistic mediums, but also maybe a new favourite hobby too!
We're sure you'll find this an enjoyable and mindful experience. People say it's relaxing, like a spa day and come back again and again.
Please note:
  • The turnaround time for your glass art is usually between 2-3 weeks of the workshop. BTW, it will be kept in my studio for about one month after it's finished and it will be donated to charity after then.
  • If you are unwell or need to cancel, contact us and we'll reschedule your class. Of course, there's zero cost for rescheduling.
