Will there be a Fused Glass Class on Monday????

I'm not sure!!
I have been super excited to bring Fusing Classes to Coleman through the after school enrichment program however its looking like it may not fill up. If you are interested in signing your child up there is still time but if I do not have at least 6 students I am going to cancel the class.
If you are not sure what a fusing glass is all about here are the details...

Workshop Details:
This class is all about fun and making some cool stuff at the same time. Students will learn the ancient art of glass fusing and create their own art-glass masterpieces! The workshop lessons will give an overview of glass properties and history, fusing techniques and the slumping process, safety skills to have while working with glass, a demo of glass cutting and suggestions on how to set artistic designs and patterns. Students will also learn about the process and temperatures of firing the glass in the kiln and all students will learn to score glass themselves. There will be a variety of projects to choose from: small dishes and candle holders, sun catchers, pendants and ornaments and seasonal pieces are just some of the possibilities. The class includes all glass, supplies and finishing work.
Returning fusers welcome- build on what you have learned!



To sign up for the class, register at http://eplay.livelifelocally.com
or
call San Rafael Community services at 485-3333.

There are 2 five week sessions being offered:
Mondays (3:10-4:40)
1st session: 1/23 - 2/27
2nd session: 3/5 - 4/16

The cost is $235 for each session. Workshop Includes all glass, kiln firing and finishing work!

I really hope to get this class going at Coleman. If this session does not take off then I will try again next year and of course, I will continue to hold the private workshops throughout the year.
