This is a 2-day Intensive class: Friday 5:30-7:30 pm, Saturday 10 am - 3:30 pm
Learn the leaded panel method of stained glass by making a small panel reminiscent of Frank Lloyd Wright's Prairie Style. This project is a stepping stone to other stained glass projects. In this class, you will have use of all tools needed for the project, as well as supplies such as lead, zinc came, flux, solder and practice glass. There is an additional $10 fee for glass for your project. We will have glass available to choose from in colors, clear and textures, or you may bring your own.
This class is recommended for ages 14 and older. Soldering irons will be used in class.
