FUSING FOR BEGINNERS

Learn the art and craft of kiln-worked glass in this exciting ONE DAY class!

Pippa (“Pip”) Cossette of TWO LASSES GLASS CLASSES, will once again be sharing her passion for glass fusing in a ONE DAY class that will teach you ALL the basics!

Sponsored and hosted by GLASS CRAFTERS, classes are conveniently held at the Glass Crafters studio, next to their store at 398 Interstate Court, (just off I-75 at the Fruitville Road exit) in Sarasota, Florida.

Budding art glass enthusiasts will learn about the process of glass fusing, from cutting and designing to kiln preparation, firing schedules, annealing, fire polishing and glass compatibility. A real time kiln-firing is part of this informative hands-on class! Each student will create TWO fabulous fused glass trivets to keep and enjoy, or to give as gifts. No previous experience is necessary.

Create beautiful trivets just like these!

Students are asked to bring a bag lunch. Refreshments will be provided by the Lasses. There will be a limit of SIX students per class.
