In this class, you and your special guest will work together to design and create ONE beautiful custom stained glass piece and will enjoy complimentary pizza and a bottle of wine to share during the workshop. At least one participant must be 18 years of age or older.
Stained glass is one of the most beautifully preserved and largely unchanged traditional crafts in the entire world. The fundamental processes and time-tested techniques have been refined and passed down over many centuries, and yet the distinctive piece you personally design and carefully construct during this workshop will be absolutely one-of-a-kind and will endure forever as a remarkable testament to your creative talents and artistic vision.
This engaging workshop is thoughtfully designed as an introduction for beginners, but will prove thoroughly enjoyable for those with prior stained glass experience, especially due to the wonderful creative freedom and flexibility you are granted in designing your own unique piece. This workshop is perfect for anyone who yearns to explore and experiment with miniature sculpture work, glass materials, color composition, and line design techniques.
During this immersive and rewarding workshop experience, our accomplished guides will introduce you to the captivating and rich world of stained glass art, teach you the foundational essentials of creating and designing stained glass artwork, and provide thorough instruction in every skill and technique involved in the respected Tiffany soldering approach to transform your vision into reality. This comprehensive instruction includes professional design tips and strategies for your piece, personalized assistance with carefully selecting and skillfully shaping each unique glass element, and finally, soldering all the components together with precision and care. You will depart this workshop carrying a magnificent one-of-a-kind stained glass artwork that you have personally designed and built with your own hands.
We provide abundant reference pictures and convenient templates to assist you in developing your design throughout the workshop. You are welcome to bring your own design concepts, preliminary sketches, or visual inspiration with you, and our knowledgeable guides will help you enthusiastically transform those ideas into your finished artwork.
