Description:
It’s finally growing season! Which means we are so so so incredibly excited to bring back the garden stakes workshop! While you are busy planning your garden… It’s time to expand your horizons past which variety of tomato you’ll grow and look at how you’ll add a bit of art to your crop this year!
You’ll be doing a type of glasswork called cold working: working with glass without heat. We’ll fire your pieces in the kiln after you leave, and your wind chime pieces will be ready for pickup within a week. Participants will learn how to cut and layer glass, consider design balance, and prepare their pieces for kiln firing. After the workshop, we’ll fire your glass pieces in our kiln.
The design is all you, but our very experienced instructors will guide you on your glass journey. Whatever you come up with, we can bring it to life together!
After the firing, we have the honor of siliconing your glass pieces to sturdy aluminum stakes, so your pieces will stay safely in the ground. Projects will be ready for pick-up within a week!
No prior experience in glass art is necessary! Everyone has to start at the beginning at some point. We welcome all beginners & seasoned glass artists. Glass and plants? That’s our favorite combo!
