Are you curious about making mosaics and discovering fused glass, using pattern and color?

In this six week program students will be introduced to the traditions and techniques to create some fun projects using natural materials such as rocks, shells, twigs to create Garden Rocks, Animal Mosaics and Garden Mosaics. We will also utilize the basics of fusing glass, such as, layering, and how to use crushed glass frit, powders, stringers and rods for added interest in the visual piece. Projects may include: a bowl using geometric shapes, a doodles platter and a sun catcher.
