Description

What you'll learn in this glass fusing class:

In this introductory fusing lesson, students will learn all of the steps to transform flat sheet glass into your own personal designs. This lesson will start with the basics of glass cutting, grinding, and learning how to design a pattern with glass. Students will also be able to embellish work with glass called stringers and various types of frit. At the end of the lesson students will place their pieces in kilns and select specific temperatures to create the texture they desire.

What to Expect: Students will create 1 or 2 fused pieces of their own simple design, under 5” in any direction.

Eligibility: No previous experience required. Open to ages 12 and up.

Pick-up: The glass needs to be fused in the kiln and cool down overnight, so the students will have to return to UrbanGlass once notified to pick up their work.
