Engraving and Coldworking, All You Need To Know

We are experiencing technical difficulties with the registration via the website.  To sign up for this class use the direct link HERE.  We apologize for any inconvenience.  Please reach out if you are having trouble signing up and we will work with you to get you registered.

In this class we will try to address any issue or problem that we may encounter during the cold glass working process. We’ll see together my personal way to do engraving and cold working, understanding how I normally overcome any barrier or problem I encounter. I’ll show you how I use all the equipment and tools even in a "non-conventional" way. And we’ll discuss anything you’re curious about, doubt or request.

What to Expect: Students can expect to watch a number of demonstrations and have time to practice coldworking on three objects using different techniques. Tools and materials will be provided. The cold shop equipment can be loud, and all equipment is water fed. Students should wear waterproof shoes, an apron, safety glasses, and ear protection are provided. 

 Read more about how to prepare for class on our Registration Info page. 

While working in the coldshop, working the equipment involves mostly standing, sometimes for long periods.  Working glass on the equipment requires a certain amount of dexterity and grip.  To learn more about accessibility please refer to the website’s accessibility page.

Eligibility: No previous experience required. Open to ages 12 and up.

We recommend registering for classes early to reserve your spot! We base materials, and teacher needs off of student enrollment. Early registration not only guarantees your spot in class, but also helps to ensure the class will run. Classes with low enrollment may be cancelled within two weeks of the start date of class. Contact our Registrar of Education, Ari Eshoo, at arianna@urbanglass.org if you have questions about the class or would like to arrange a payment plan.

This is an in-person class taking place on-site at UrbanGlass.
