Two workshops: 

Workshop 1: Knitting with Glass November 4, 5, 6 & 10

Learn to knit with glass!  Working with strands of wax, students will knit small objects to transform into glass using the lost-wax-casting process.   The class will cover all aspects of glass casting:  wax-working, spruing waxes, mold-making, kiln schedules, divesting and cold-working.  All levels are welcome.  But beginners should be prepared to be challenged.

Workshop 2: Glass Hands: November 8 & 9

Using alginate molds, you will make an exact replica of your hand in wax, which we will then cast in glass. All levels are welcome.

In this 6-day class you will turn wax into glass using the lost wax casting technique to create glass sculpture.  Three projects will be undertaken: 
1. A freestanding knitted glass sculpture.
2. A solid ½” thick textured vessel.
3. A multi-colored bas-relief tile with loops or fiber texture.

Size will be limited to 8”cube.  All levels are welcome, but beginners be prepared to be challenged.

POSTPONED DUE TO COVID-19

Repeating, interlocking designs are called tessellations. In this class, students will learn the basics of symmetry, pattern, and tessellations and apply the knowledge to the development of 2-D repeating and interlocking designs. Students will convert the designs into 3-D bas-relief tiles and make reusable silicone rubber positives of them. The rubber positives will be used to create a range of molds for hot casting and kiln casting glass tiles. All skill levels are welcome.
