This four-week, intensive workshop, led by instructor Elizabeth DaCrema, focuses on the fundamentals of stained-glass fabrication, including: how to pattern a stained-glass design, cut colored glass, and build a small panel with lead and solder. Students will learn all the traditional methods and techniques needed to fabricate a stained-glass panel of their own from start to finish. This workshop is designed for beginners, but all levels are welcome.
Closed toe shoes are required. Participants must follow all safety precautions to avoid serious injury, as glass cutting and assembly can be dangerous and physically demanding. This workshop will not include glass painting or designing.
