In this workshop you will be introduced to the wonderful world of fused glass and create an artwork you will want to show everyone who visits! Taught by Stacey Galfskiy (BA/Hons Illustration) of Chillilicious, this workshop is for complete fused glass beginners but can be used as a refresher to the craft also. Lasting up to 2 hours you will be guided through the workshop and the process of fused glass, you will then be given a 20x20cm plate to use as a working space. You can create any shape or image within the working space using a mosaic style technique of placing pre-cut pieces of colourful glass together to make up your artwork. The classes are very flexible so if you have an idea of something you wish to make please chat to Stacey on the day and she will help you work through your creative thoughts. 

Safety glasses and particle mask will be provided. Wearing warm clothes is advised as it can sometimes be a wee bit chilly in the workshop until the heater warms up. Children are welcome however it is recommended that the child be over 8 years of age for this class and an adult must accompany younger children if they wish to participate.
