Description

Stained glass represents one of the most unchanged and enduring crafts in the world. The foundational process and traditional techniques involved have remained largely consistent for centuries, yet the unique piece you design and build in this workshop will be completely one-of-a-kind and will forever serve as a personal monument to your creative superpowers and artistic vision!

This workshop is thoughtfully designed for beginners who are just starting their stained glass journey, but it will also prove enjoyable and engaging to those with previous stained glass experience, especially given the considerable creative latitude and freedom you're allowed in designing your custom piece. This workshop is absolutely perfect for anyone who desires to dabble in the rewarding world of small form sculpture, glass work, color theory, and line design.

During this comprehensive workshop, our experienced guides will introduce you to the fascinating world of stained glass art, carefully teach you the foundational fundamentals of designing effective stained glass artwork, and walk you through all the hands-on skills involved in the traditional Tiffany technique to bring your design to life. This instructional experience will include professional tips for designing your unique piece, personalized help with selecting and shaping each of its individual elements, and finally, soldering it all together with precision. You'll leave this workshop with a beautiful, one-of-a-kind stained glass work of art that you designed and built entirely by yourself!

We'll have plenty of pictures and design templates available to help you create your design concept right there in the workshop, but feel free to bring some of your own design ideas and sketches, and our guides will help you bring them to life in glass.

  • What You'll Be Making: A beautiful, finished piece of stained glass art
  • What You'll Be Doing: Creating your own custom design, carefully cutting and shaping glass pieces, and soldering the pieces together to create the finished product
  • Skill Level: Beginner - no previous experience is required

    I feel so fortunate to have been a part of this wonderful class. Everything about it was perfect. The experience enabled me to develop a working knowledge of an art form that I have loved forever. Jessica, our teacher, provided clear instructions, individualized assistance when needed, and an accepting atmosphere that facilitated the successful production of all of the projects. Thank you so much. It was truly a pleasure.

    I learned this beautiful process of making stained glass art. I was vacationing from Maryland for my 10th wedding anniversary and decided to take this course. I am an artist but I had never done stained glass. It was well worth the money and I will be taking courses in my area. Thanks Jess and Mary!

    This was a really fun class! It was a great "quick" course to learn how to make fun stained glass art. Important things I wish I knew prior to the class: - This class allows you to make artwork that is sized 5.5"x8.5" or smaller - The glass artwork/shapes must be a total of 8 pieces or less (this is important due to time restraints) - Don't worry if you didn't create a design, they have lots of templates to choose from I picked a small shaped from the template pile that was roughly 4x5 inches, 8 pieces total. Keep in mind there are a lot of steps involved per glass piece you cut out. Some people in the class made larger pieces using the full 5.5"x8.5" size limit, and they struggled to finish or had to go over the class time. (There are usually classes scheduled back to back, so it's important to finish within the 4 hours) The class works together through each step, so they announce a lot of time-management reminder "we have 15-20 mins before the next step", so that might add to the stress a little if you are running behind (instructors will also help you). It might be beneficial to add to the class bio "8-8:30am choose design, 8:30-9:00 cut out glass design, 9-9:30 sand glass piece, etc". Rather than rushing the students who are not aware there is a strict schedule planned, those who signed up for the class get a rough idea of how timing works and know what to expect. Overall, I had a great learning experienced and walked away with a fun creation! I would definitely re-visit to try another class, as well as strongly recommend the class to friends. Just keep in mind, a smaller design will probably benefit you in this class because you definitely lose track of time when you are looking at options for glass colors and designs. :)

    The instructors did a really good job at fitting necessary safety information and skills within a few hours. They were both really accommodating and knowledgeable.

  • Make a Stained Glass Work of Art (Intro Level)

    I had a very negative experience in this class. Perhaps I should have done more research before the class as I had absolutely no idea how complicated the process would be. Also expected much more guidance and explanation. There were too many people in the class and it should have been divided into two classes to give us some more understanding of what kind of designs would be possible in the medium. We could have done one whole class learning how to come up with appropriate designs and how to cut the glass and use the tools instead of trying to complete a finished product in the allotted time. This class did not take into account different learning styles and was too difficult to be considered Stained Glass 101. I ended up so depressed I left halfway through. I’ve taken ceramics classes, a block printing workshop, and learned how to solder, so didn’t expect to have such a frustrating experience with this medium. If this were a true beginners class it should have been much more simplified instead of racing us through each process. Telling us beforehand that our design should be as big as a hand and could have eight pieces was also misleading for absolute novices. We could have been better prepared by being told that the process was more like assembling a jigsaw puzzle. This would have been a more accurate way to prepare us beforehand. To say I was disappointed is an understatement.

    I enjoyed the stain glass work of art class. The amount of people in the class made me feel welcome. There were four other people in the class. So I received good one on one help. The teacher was kind & patient with me. Working with my hands to bring a work of art to life was great. I would take this class again. The studio was neat, clean, & arranged well. Job well done Craftsman.
