Glass Fusing Workshop for Beginners



6.5 hours Class size 6 to 10 guests     $250


This is an intensive workshop where you will learn comprehensive glass fusing and slumping skills.
During the class you will gain an understanding of glass fusing and slumping and acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to fuse glass. This includes everything from how to cut glass using mosaic cutters, and free hand scorers, to the basic fusing process.
In the morning you will make some small items (jewellery, coaster, small dish) in order to understand different firing outcomes. We have an hour lunch break - there are a lot of local restaurants so you can eat locally or bring your own lunch.
In the afternoon you will make a piece 26cm x 26cm. This can be in the form of a flat art piece or a platter/dish. If you choose to make a larger item than what the course offers - or an additional item - you can do so but will be charged for the additional glass, materials and firing.
The value of the pieces you will make is worth approximately $120. Tea, coffee and biscuits will also be served.
