Groundworks Art Lab

Glass fusing, also known as kiln-formed glass, involves heating multiple pieces of glass in a kiln to create a single, fused piece. It's a versatile art form with many practical and decorative applications.

Come learn and explore the basics of using glass as an artmaking medium in just a few short hours in this introductory level class. We’ll provide a selection of colored glass sheets for you to use for the base of your design and other various forms of glass (frit, confetti, and stringers) you can use to really bring your design to life. 

The goal for this class will be for each student to make a multiple part hanging suncatcher or mobile. Glass pieces will be available for pick up within two weeks after the class concludes. Students will be responsible for assembling their own pieces. 

Whether you’re totally new to this art form, or a seasoned enthusiast, this class is for you. All are welcome!

Our Glass Studio does have some safety basics before anyone is allowed to join in the fun (failure to meet these requirements will result in not being granted access to the equipment):

• No loose or dangling jewelry, long earrings or scarves.
• If you have long hair, please have it securely tied back from your face.
• We will provide safety goggles, but if you have your own and would like to bring them, please do!
