If you have always appreciated the beauty of stained glass, come find out how it’s done by doing it yourself. In a completely relaxed and casual atmosphere at the artist’s studio in Mebane, overcome the intimidation of breaking glass with your bare hands (and a few handy tools). Beginning students will learn glass cutting basics and the terms and techniques of stained glass using the copper foil method. Students will be allowed to choose a medium-sized (roughly 17” x 22”) pattern from several styles and glass combinations (prices vary on glass types). The instructor will assist and supervise students with previous experience who have ideas, personal projects or ‘works in progress’. Students will not be required to purchase expensive equipment- only materials that are used in the creation of the project. Beginners will gain experience that prepares them for the intermediate copper foil level and Intermediates will leave ready for the Design & Leading Class.

*This class only employs the copper foil method.

*Students proficient in the copper foil method can contact instructor to be placed on the list for the next Leading & Design Class

*Students will be charged an estimated $85 for materials, paid to instructor at first class meeting (cash or check only, please).

*Intermediate students should bring patterns and ideas for planning purposes.

*Dress should be casual with closed-toe shoes.
