This workshop will introduce many fundamental concepts related to creating glass objects in the kiln. After a brief overview, you'll work with a wide range of glasses to make a fused and slumped artwork. The artwork will be fired after the workshop and available for pick-up later or at the next workshop date. After completing this class, you will be able to cut glass, understand the heating and melting methods for kiln formed glass, including many advanced glass techniques. No experience with glass is required for this course—recommended for beginners.
