PLEASE NOTE : There is a growing demand for lead classes. Leaded windows are the traditional method and, to some purist craftsmen, it's the only legitimate way to create stained glass. This is the only method our studio uses in its own creations and to restore old projects.
In this course, you will learn how to assemble a panel using lead came and how to solder and clean your panel like a professional.

Fusion is the technique of melting glass together in a glass kiln. In this beginner’s class, students will make a tasteful flat glass tile, approximately 6" by 6" in size, that can hang in a window or be displayed on a stand.
Various cut glass elements will be added, along with glass noodles, stringers, and glass frit. If students have time, they may add a small window hanging to the kiln. Questions on the subject of kilns and kiln controls will be answered.
