Classes
Intro to kiln-forming Class - $60 (includes all tools & materials)
Beginner classes last approximately 3 hours. ($15/hour for each additional hour (or part of) for instructor time) You'll learn about the basics of kiln-formed glass, the types of glass you can work with, the tools of the trade, including safety precautions. You'll design and create a basic piece that will be fired for pickup a week later!
Intermediate Class - $125 (includes all tools & materials)
Intermediate classes are two, 2 to 3 hour sessions over two weeks. You'll have the opportunity to design part sheets, flow bars, pattern bars, screen printing or start strip construction in the first session. You will have the opportunity to use advanced cold working tools such as the wet saw and flat grinder. Then use those elements in your final piece in the second session. Your piece will be fired between sessions and then again after the final session to be picked up a week later!
