Description
This class is for all levels of students. All students will be instructed in coefficient of expansion, behavior of glass in stages of firing, annealing, cold working, types of accessory glass, and other subjects as may be appropriate. Glass cutting will be taught as needed.Closed toe shoes must be worn in this class. Projects will include small decorative items such as plates, tiles, nightlights and jewelry. Tools and equipment will be available to beginners for use in class. A limited amount of fusible glass is available for purchase from the instructor. Scrap glass is available at no cost. Stained glass cannot be used for fusing.
An additional one-time materials fee of $75.00 is payable to the instructor at the first class. The materials fee includes all glass and firing fees. Experienced students are not required to pay the materials fee but must provide their own glass and glass cutters.
The instructor will take all projects home to be fired and will return the projects the following week. (If a student has a kiln at home, they may complete the project in class and take it to their own kiln for firing.) If experienced students want the instructor to fire their projects, a small firing fee will be charged. Firing fees range from $5.00 per firing in a small kiln and $10.00 per firing in a large kiln. Full fuse, slump firing into a mold, and fire polish are separate firings.
