Glass – Spring Short Session
April 27 – May 2, 2025 (4 studio days)

Cut, Sift, Fire: Patterns and Texture in Warm Glass

This workshop will cover the fundamentals of fused glass. The workshop will begin with an introduction to the essential tools and terms used in creating flat panels in the kiln. With a focus on experimentation and sample-making, we will compose a library of patterns by cutting and stacking glass shapes, arranging dots and stripes, and sifting powder through hand-cut stencils. Our last demonstration will be an introduction to coldworking as we shape our glass panels. At the end of the session, students will be comfortable with glass cutting, kiln preparation, and firing schedules. Introductory workshop; all skill levels welcome.
