Would you like to turn an object that holds personal meaning into a beautiful work of glass art? This workshop is perfect for all experience levels—no prior glasswork knowledge needed!

In this class, you'll learn how to create a custom silicone mold of your chosen object and transform it into a unique glass piece using the Freeze and Fuse technique.

We'll explore how to create detailed fused glass forms by "painting" powdered glass into your mold, freezing it into shape, and then kiln-firing it to fuse the particles into solid glass. The finished piece can be displayed on its own, turned into jewelry, or incorporated into a larger work of art.

Finished glass pieces will be ready for pickup the next day after firing.

Please wear closed-toed shoes.
