Description

Celebrate the season with color and creativity! In this fun kiln shop experience, you will use colorful glass granules (frit) and thin glass rods (stringers) to design and make your own vibrant glass suncatcher, a perfect decoration to welcome spring’s light. Once you design it, we’ll fire it so all the pieces become one. Capture the spirit of spring in glass and bring a little sunshine to your windows! Make-It-Now experiences offer a quick, hands-on introduction to the colorful world of kilnformed glass. In the kiln shop, you’ll learn from a skilled local artist how to design and assemble your own glass creation using glass frit and stringers. In less than an hour, explore how layers of glass come together to form vibrant patterns and images of your own design. Perfect for beginners, these quick experiences let you discover the beauty of working with glass at your own pace and with no heat.
