KILN GLASS – with Mary Frith
Mondays 7 pm – 9 pm
Fridays 10am – 12noon
8 Weeks ending w/c 9th June
This class is in the Poldrate Granary Ground Floor.
The fee for this class includes a firing fee but no material cost. This is a mixed ability class and beginners are very welcome. The class will cover the skills required to complete kiln glass, also known as fused glass, projects. Once the basic skills have been covered the students will be encouraged to explore the possibilities and develop their own style. While learning the basics we will use window or framing glass as this is easily acquired. often for nothing. Students can then choose whether to continue to work with this waste glass or with one of the ranges of art glass designed for fusing. There will be some glass available for new students to use in the first few weeks as well as basic tools. Advice will then be given to students about purchasing materials and equipment.
Successful firing in a kiln is dependent on many variables especially when a lot of different work is being fired together. Occasionally something will not work as expected. Shelving is provided for the safe storage of fired work and work waiting to be fired but all our rooms are relatively busy shared spaces. PACC cannot beheld responsible for any accidental damage to student’s pieces of work.
