Open Stained Glass Studio (Age 18+)

Open Stained Glass Studio (Age 18+)

January 8, 15, 22, & 30 from 12:00 – 3:00 pm

Sign up for this four-session open studio experience: it’s an opportunity for you to continue exploring the vibrant world of stained glass! During open studio time, you’ll work on your own project(s) and receive expert guidance and creative support from Teaching Artist Ginger. Essential equipment and supplies are provided with the exception of glass; you may bring your own glass and/or purchase glass from ACE’s supply. Each student receives their own copper foil and solder roll; the cost of these rolls is included in the class fee. You’ll take home your finished project(s) and, if ​you wish, your rolls of foil and copper for future artistic adventures – or for use in future ACE open glass studio opportunities! Students are required to have taken at least one Beginning Stained Glass class at ACE prior to signing up for this open studio. If you’ve had prior stained glass experience elsewhere, please email [email protected] to see if you’re eligible to sign up. Please enter through the 5th Street door.

Safety glasses are provided and required during cutting, grinding, and soldering. No food or drink at the workbench. Please wash your hands after handling solder, lead came, or patina.
