   Classes are open to beginners and experienced students. Beginners will learn the use of color and fundamental stained glass techniques such as selecting and cutting glass, working with a pattern template, using a grinder, soldering and assembling projects using the copper foil or lead came techniques. As students progress they will learn original design, reinforcement and repair of stained glass projects and advanced soldering skills. Advanced students work on larger scale projects and more intricate designs, as well as forms of glass manipulation (plating, sandblasting, kiln formed glass, painting and enameling) to enhance even the simplest design. Tools cost between $75 and $120 and glass must be purchased. Supplies will be discussed at the first meeting. Due to limited space, all new students will be put on a waiting list and phoned regarding their registration. Since space in the stained glass room is often tight, new students will be placed on a waiting list and will be informed by phone, before the first class, whether their registration has been accepted.

Please contact Dr. Mark Rooney for registration information.
