Create a
Class – If you don’t see the class or dates that work for you listed, consider
creating your own class. Because so many of our students are after a specific
technique one of the best solutions is to let them set their own curriculum.
Both Gil and Carmen have extensive experience in teaching just about any glass
technique you can imagine. A partial list includes: kiln casting, pattern bars,
fire bucket techniques, silk screen printing, slumping and mold making, pate-de-verre,
liquid stringer, Flexi-Glass, working large, working small, production
processes, reactive glasses, photographing your art work and marketing. All you
need to do is let us know;
- A) What
techniques you are interested in?
- B) Your
skill level?
- C) How long a class do you want; 1/2 day, 1-day, 2-day, 3-day or 4-day?
- D) What
dates fit your schedule?
- E) Do you
want a private or group class?
Once we
have you basic information we will set a custom class. Bring some friends or we
can open it up to our mailing list and turn it into a group class. This is a
great opportunity to have fun and learn the specific techniques that are
important to you. Fees will be based on the number of students, be we can work
with you to keep it under budget.
