FIRE & FORM. CREATING A FUSED GLASS BOWL WITH STEPH HOWE
May 9 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm EDT
$90.00
Join glass artist Steph Howe for an introduction to the art of fused glass and create a beautiful set of two sculpted dishes. In this hands‑on workshop, participants learn the essentials of cutting and grinding glass, then work on a pre‑fused flat glass panel as their creative base.
This workshop will explore colour, form, and surface design while learning essential fused‑glass techniques. Using glass frit (powdered glass), glass noodles, and fusible glass paints, students will build their own custom design with vibrant detail and depth.
Each bowl, approximately 6” will be crafted from 2 layers of glass that are fully fused flat and ready to decorate before the class. By the end of class, you’ll have a pair of unique, handcrafted dishes ready to display or gift.
Following class, Steph will take each piece to her home studio for final kiln firing.
Finished artworks will be returned to the Art Centre within 2 weeks. Participants will receive an email notification when their pieces are ready for pickup!
Fused glass is a labor-intensive process to prepare, with a higher material cost. Please note, there is a $30 kit fee payable to the instructor in cash or transfer at the start of class. All tools and materials will be provided in the kit fee.
If participants have their own glass cutting tools, please feel free to bring them along!
