Advanced Beginner Glassblowing
November 1st - December 13thShuhei Fujii, Jessi Moore |
Cups are a basic form, and practicing a cylinder will help refine students’ understanding of the glass making process as well as their hand skills. With a firm foundation to work from, we’ll introduce working with “bits” to add decoration and make our cups more unique. Glass “bit work” refers to working with glass in an additive fashion; building a piece by adding several globs of glass together. This class is designed for students who already have some experience in the hot shop and would like to better refine their process, and bring their personality out in their glass!
This class will not meet November 22
What to Expect: Weekly demonstrations will be followed by students working in teams to try out the technique shown that week. Expect to grow your skills and be challenged in the process. Read more about how to prepare for class on our Registration Info page.
