Rings and More
April 13th, 11:00 am – 5:00 pmMaria Aroche |
This class costs $250. 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.
This beginner workshop will guide students in the creation of their very own glass rings using borosilicate glass. Working with a ring mandrels not only to make rings but to use the end of the mandrel to create a small standing vase. With safety talks and demonstrations, students will learn the process of melting colorful glass rods at the torch and how to use a basic set of tools to shape the molten material.
What to Expect: ring-making requires a little practice at heat control with the torch to create successful objects. After demonstrations, expect to make between 2 - 6 successful objects in this class, and a couple failures, while gaining confidence and skill in the studio. Read more about how to prepare for class on our Registration Info page.
Eligibility: No previous experience required. Open to ages 12 and up.
Pick-up: The glass needs to cool down overnight then be carefully removed from the mandrels, so the students will have to return to UrbanGlass once notified to pick up their work.
This is an in-person class taking place on-site at UrbanGlass. Health and safety guidelines will be emailed to you upon registration.
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.
