Spend the afternoon doing something fun by learning something new! This is an easy, low-commitment workshop where you learn the basics of stained glass, including how to cut, grind, copper foil, and solder, ending with a finished night-light of your very own. If you’re interested in the stained glass process, but aren’t ready to commit to a longer class or invest in your own tools, this one is for you.

In this class, we explore leading, the original stained glass method dating back to the late 11th century! We share everything we know about this historic art form and its traditional stained glass leading techniques, beginning from initial design to final fabrication. In addition to learning leading, we cover techniques in floral pressing and how to use your finished panel as a negative while creating cyanotypes. Completing this class will leave you with a proper foundational skill set capable of scaling, designing, and fabricating successful future projects.
