In just one session you’ll learn the fundamentals of kiln-formed glass art and leave with a beautiful fused glass piece that you made yourself.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;No experience necessary.

You’ll learn how glass fusing works, why compatible glass is essential, and how to measure, cut, and assemble glass. Then you’ll get to work by choosing your colors, cutting your glass, and assembling your own one-of-a-kind piece.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Your finished piece will be ready for pickup at the studio within 2 weeks. We’ll send you an email when it’s ready.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Did you get the glass bug during stained glass for beginners? Here's where you can continue building on the skills you learned in a new, 8-week class format.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
You’ll get more time to work on several projects or one larger piece, and explore more advanced techniques. The class, as a group, will select specific learning opportunities to learn during the 8-weeks!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Learn How to:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="line-height: 22px; margin-left: 2em;"&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Select or design patterns that make strong stained glass pieces&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a cricut machine to create patterns in vinyl&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a ring saw to make ‘impossible’ cuts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Incorporate special materials like shells, rocks, ceramics, or mirror&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Make 3D forms&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Add decorative wire work or solder details&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Finish your projects with hobby came or edge beading&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Students can either come to the first class with a pattern selected to jump in right away, or use the first class to discuss their project with the instructor. Because the needs of these self-directed projects are entirely unique, students will be responsible for providing the own copper foil, solder, and any faming material, hangers, wire, or chain as needed.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;This course has a pre-requisite of Stained Glass for Beginners.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Rachel Dlugos got her start in glass in the Glass Fusion Collective studio, and quickly fell in love with stained glass, glass fusing, and mosaics (really anything that involves breaking glass). With a degree in Fine Art from the Savannah College of Art and Design and a background in product design and user research, she brings a uniquely analytical eye to the studio. She has quickly become known for her technical skill and craftsmanship, and her teaching style reflects that same commitment to doing things well and understanding why they work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style=""&gt;Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;If you've ever wanted to work with glass but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you! Over ten weeks you'll build a real foundation in the craft — learning to cut and assemble glass, load the kiln, read firing schedules, and finish your work — with an emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill so you understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you come in with a project idea already in mind or need help finding your direction, you'll leave with finished pieces you're proud of. There’s no experience necessary, and repeat students are encouraged - there is always something new to learn!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 16.0016px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma"&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Wednesday Evening, Intermediate Stained Glass Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/Images/Classes/Intermediate/IMG_6922.png" alt="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" title="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" border="0" width="200" height="279" align="left" style="margin: 0px 15px 10px 0px;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Did you get the glass bug during stained glass for beginners? Here's where you can continue building on the skills you learned in a new, 8-week class format.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
You’ll get more time to work on several projects or one larger piece, and explore more advanced techniques. The class, as a group, will select specific learning opportunities to learn during the 8-weeks!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Learn How to:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="line-height: 22px; margin-left: 2em;"&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Select or design patterns that make strong stained glass pieces&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a cricut machine to create patterns in vinyl&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a ring saw to make ‘impossible’ cuts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Incorporate special materials like shells, rocks, ceramics, or mirror&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Make 3D forms&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Add decorative wire work or solder details&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Finish your projects with hobby came or edge beading&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Students can either come to the first class with a pattern selected to jump in right away, or use the first class to discuss their project with the instructor. Because the needs of these self-directed projects are entirely unique, students will be responsible for providing the own copper foil, solder, and any faming material, hangers, wire, or chain as needed.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;This course has a pre-requisite of Stained Glass for Beginners.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Required to Bring:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Safety glasses, if you have a pair that you prefer. Otherwise safety glasses will be provided.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;2 copies of your pattern(s)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Glass*&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Framing material, hangers, decorative wire, or hanging chain as needed**&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Rachel Dlugos got her start in glass in the Glass Fusion Collective studio, and quickly fell in love with stained glass, glass fusing, and mosaics (really anything that involves breaking glass). With a degree in Fine Art from the Savannah College of Art and Design and a background in product design and user research, she brings a uniquely analytical eye to the studio. She has quickly become known for her technical skill and craftsmanship, and her teaching style reflects that same commitment to doing things well and understanding why they work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Location:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Thursday: All Levels Class with Rachel Dlugos (01/21/2027)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="" color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;em style=""&gt;Registration Closes on January 7, 2027&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style=""&gt;Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/rdlugos_glassfusing.jpg" title="Beginner to Intermediate projects with Bud Spindt. From platters to kiln formed molds." target="_blank" style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41);"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/rdlugos_glassfusing.jpg" alt="" border="0" title="" width="345" height="381"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;If you've ever wanted to work with glass but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you! Over ten weeks you'll build a real foundation in the craft — learning to cut and assemble glass, load the kiln, read firing schedules, and finish your work — with an emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill so you understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you come in with a project idea already in mind or need help finding your direction, you'll leave with finished pieces you're proud of.

&lt;p style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 16.0016px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma"&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Wednesday Evening, Intermediate Stained Glass Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/Images/Classes/Intermediate/IMG_6922.png" alt="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" title="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" border="0" width="200" height="279" align="left" style="margin: 0px 15px 10px 0px;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Did you get the glass bug during stained glass for beginners? Here's where you can continue building on the skills you learned in a new, 8-week class format.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
You’ll get more time to work on several projects or one larger piece, and explore more advanced techniques. The class, as a group, will select specific learning opportunities to learn during the 8-weeks!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Learn How to:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="line-height: 22px; margin-left: 2em;"&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Select or design patterns that make strong stained glass pieces&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a cricut machine to create patterns in vinyl&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a ring saw to make ‘impossible’ cuts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Incorporate special materials like shells, rocks, ceramics, or mirror&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Make 3D forms&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Add decorative wire work or solder details&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Finish your projects with hobby came or edge beading&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Students can either come to the first class with a pattern selected to jump in right away, or use the first class to discuss their project with the instructor. Because the needs of these self-directed projects are entirely unique, students will be responsible for providing the own copper foil, solder, and any faming material, hangers, wire, or chain as needed.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;This course has a pre-requisite of Stained Glass for Beginners.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Required to Bring:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Safety glasses, if you have a pair that you prefer. Otherwise safety glasses will be provided.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;2 copies of your pattern(s)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Glass*&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Rachel Dlugos got her start in glass in the Glass Fusion Collective studio, and quickly fell in love with stained glass, glass fusing, and mosaics (really anything that involves breaking glass). With a degree in Fine Art from the Savannah College of Art and Design and a background in product design and user research, she brings a uniquely analytical eye to the studio. She has quickly become known for her technical skill and craftsmanship, and her teaching style reflects that same commitment to doing things well and understanding why they work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Thursday: All Levels Class with Rachel Dlugos (01/28/2027)</title>

&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style=""&gt;Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/rdlugos_glassfusing.jpg" title="Beginner to Intermediate projects with Bud Spindt.

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;If you've ever wanted to work with glass but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you! Over ten weeks you'll build a real foundation in the craft — learning to cut and assemble glass, load the kiln, read firing schedules, and finish your work — with an emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill so you understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you come in with a project idea already in mind or need help finding your direction, you'll leave with finished pieces you're proud of. There’s no experience necessary, and repeat students are encouraged - there is always something new to learn!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Returning students, are able to purchase the starter pack for an additional $45 (Returning students: click "add starter pack" on the registration page if you want add this to your registration total).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Wednesday - Intermediate Stained Glass with Rachel Dlugos (02/03/2027)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 16.0016px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Registration Closes on January 6, 2027&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 16.0016px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma"&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Wednesday Evening, Intermediate Stained Glass Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/Images/Classes/Intermediate/IMG_6922.png" alt="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" title="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" border="0" width="200" height="279" align="left" style="margin: 0px 15px 10px 0px;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Did you get the glass bug during stained glass for beginners? Here's where you can continue building on the skills you learned in a new, 8-week class format.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
You’ll get more time to work on several projects or one larger piece, and explore more advanced techniques. The class, as a group, will select specific learning opportunities to learn during the 8-weeks!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Learn How to:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="line-height: 22px; margin-left: 2em;"&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Select or design patterns that make strong stained glass pieces&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a cricut machine to create patterns in vinyl&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a ring saw to make ‘impossible’ cuts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Incorporate special materials like shells, rocks, ceramics, or mirror&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Make 3D forms&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Add decorative wire work or solder details&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Finish your projects with hobby came or edge beading&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Students can either come to the first class with a pattern selected to jump in right away, or use the first class to discuss their project with the instructor. Because the needs of these self-directed projects are entirely unique, students will be responsible for providing the own copper foil, solder, and any faming material, hangers, wire, or chain as needed.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;This course has a pre-requisite of Stained Glass for Beginners.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Required to Bring:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Safety glasses, if you have a pair that you prefer. Otherwise safety glasses will be provided.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;2 copies of your pattern(s)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

With a degree in Fine Art from the Savannah College of Art and Design and a background in product design and user research, she brings a uniquely analytical eye to the studio. She has quickly become known for her technical skill and craftsmanship, and her teaching style reflects that same commitment to doing things well and understanding why they work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Thursday: All Levels Class with Rachel Dlugos (02/04/2027)</title>

&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style=""&gt;Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;If you've ever wanted to work with glass but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you! Over ten weeks you'll build a real foundation in the craft — learning to cut and assemble glass, load the kiln, read firing schedules, and finish your work — with an emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill so you understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you come in with a project idea already in mind or need help finding your direction, you'll leave with finished pieces you're proud of. There’s no experience necessary, and repeat students are encouraged - there is always something new to learn!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 16.0016px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma"&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Wednesday Evening, Intermediate Stained Glass Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/Images/Classes/Intermediate/IMG_6922.png" alt="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" title="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" border="0" width="200" height="279" align="left" style="margin: 0px 15px 10px 0px;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Did you get the glass bug during stained glass for beginners? Here's where you can continue building on the skills you learned in a new, 8-week class format.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
You’ll get more time to work on several projects or one larger piece, and explore more advanced techniques. The class, as a group, will select specific learning opportunities to learn during the 8-weeks!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Learn How to:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="line-height: 22px; margin-left: 2em;"&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Select or design patterns that make strong stained glass pieces&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a cricut machine to create patterns in vinyl&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a ring saw to make ‘impossible’ cuts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Incorporate special materials like shells, rocks, ceramics, or mirror&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Make 3D forms&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Add decorative wire work or solder details&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Finish your projects with hobby came or edge beading&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Students can either come to the first class with a pattern selected to jump in right away, or use the first class to discuss their project with the instructor. Because the needs of these self-directed projects are entirely unique, students will be responsible for providing the own copper foil, solder, and any faming material, hangers, wire, or chain as needed.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;This course has a pre-requisite of Stained Glass for Beginners.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Required to Bring:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="line-height: 22px; margin-left: 2em;"&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;$20 supply fee&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

With a degree in Fine Art from the Savannah College of Art and Design and a background in product design and user research, she brings a uniquely analytical eye to the studio. She has quickly become known for her technical skill and craftsmanship, and her teaching style reflects that same commitment to doing things well and understanding why they work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Thursday: All Levels Class with Rachel Dlugos (02/11/2027)</title>

&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style=""&gt;Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;If you've ever wanted to work with glass but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you! Over ten weeks you'll build a real foundation in the craft — learning to cut and assemble glass, load the kiln, read firing schedules, and finish your work — with an emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill so you understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you come in with a project idea already in mind or need help finding your direction, you'll leave with finished pieces you're proud of. There’s no experience necessary, and repeat students are encouraged - there is always something new to learn!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Did you get the glass bug during stained glass for beginners? Here's where you can continue building on the skills you learned in a new, 8-week class format.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
You’ll get more time to work on several projects or one larger piece, and explore more advanced techniques. The class, as a group, will select specific learning opportunities to learn during the 8-weeks!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Learn How to:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="line-height: 22px; margin-left: 2em;"&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Select or design patterns that make strong stained glass pieces&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a cricut machine to create patterns in vinyl&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a ring saw to make ‘impossible’ cuts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Incorporate special materials like shells, rocks, ceramics, or mirror&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Make 3D forms&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Add decorative wire work or solder details&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Finish your projects with hobby came or edge beading&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Students can either come to the first class with a pattern selected to jump in right away, or use the first class to discuss their project with the instructor. Because the needs of these self-directed projects are entirely unique, students will be responsible for providing the own copper foil, solder, and any faming material, hangers, wire, or chain as needed.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;This course has a pre-requisite of Stained Glass for Beginners.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Rachel Dlugos got her start in glass in the Glass Fusion Collective studio, and quickly fell in love with stained glass, glass fusing, and mosaics (really anything that involves breaking glass). With a degree in Fine Art from the Savannah College of Art and Design and a background in product design and user research, she brings a uniquely analytical eye to the studio. She has quickly become known for her technical skill and craftsmanship, and her teaching style reflects that same commitment to doing things well and understanding why they work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style=""&gt;Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;If you've ever wanted to work with glass but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you! Over ten weeks you'll build a real foundation in the craft — learning to cut and assemble glass, load the kiln, read firing schedules, and finish your work — with an emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill so you understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you come in with a project idea already in mind or need help finding your direction, you'll leave with finished pieces you're proud of. There’s no experience necessary, and repeat students are encouraged - there is always something new to learn!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 16.0016px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma"&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Wednesday Evening, Intermediate Stained Glass Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/Images/Classes/Intermediate/IMG_6922.png" alt="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" title="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" border="0" width="200" height="279" align="left" style="margin: 0px 15px 10px 0px;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Did you get the glass bug during stained glass for beginners? Here's where you can continue building on the skills you learned in a new, 8-week class format.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
You’ll get more time to work on several projects or one larger piece, and explore more advanced techniques. The class, as a group, will select specific learning opportunities to learn during the 8-weeks!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Learn How to:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="line-height: 22px; margin-left: 2em;"&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Select or design patterns that make strong stained glass pieces&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a cricut machine to create patterns in vinyl&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a ring saw to make ‘impossible’ cuts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Incorporate special materials like shells, rocks, ceramics, or mirror&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Make 3D forms&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Add decorative wire work or solder details&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Finish your projects with hobby came or edge beading&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Students can either come to the first class with a pattern selected to jump in right away, or use the first class to discuss their project with the instructor. Because the needs of these self-directed projects are entirely unique, students will be responsible for providing the own copper foil, solder, and any faming material, hangers, wire, or chain as needed.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;This course has a pre-requisite of Stained Glass for Beginners.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Required to Bring:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Safety glasses, if you have a pair that you prefer. Otherwise safety glasses will be provided.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;2 copies of your pattern(s)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Glass*&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Rachel Dlugos got her start in glass in the Glass Fusion Collective studio, and quickly fell in love with stained glass, glass fusing, and mosaics (really anything that involves breaking glass). With a degree in Fine Art from the Savannah College of Art and Design and a background in product design and user research, she brings a uniquely analytical eye to the studio. She has quickly become known for her technical skill and craftsmanship, and her teaching style reflects that same commitment to doing things well and understanding why they work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Location:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Thursday: All Levels Class with Rachel Dlugos (02/25/2027)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="" color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;em style=""&gt;Registration Closes on January 7, 2027&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style=""&gt;Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/rdlugos_glassfusing.jpg" title="Beginner to Intermediate projects with Bud Spindt. From platters to kiln formed molds." target="_blank" style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41);"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/rdlugos_glassfusing.jpg" alt="" border="0" title="" width="345" height="381"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;If you've ever wanted to work with glass but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you! Over ten weeks you'll build a real foundation in the craft — learning to cut and assemble glass, load the kiln, read firing schedules, and finish your work — with an emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill so you understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you come in with a project idea already in mind or need help finding your direction, you'll leave with finished pieces you're proud of.

&lt;p style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 16.0016px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma"&gt;&lt;font color="#222222"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Wednesday Evening, Intermediate Stained Glass Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/Images/Classes/Intermediate/IMG_6922.png" alt="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" title="Stained Glass created by a student From Intermediate Stained Glass" border="0" width="200" height="279" align="left" style="margin: 0px 15px 10px 0px;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Did you get the glass bug during stained glass for beginners? Here's where you can continue building on the skills you learned in a new, 8-week class format.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
You’ll get more time to work on several projects or one larger piece, and explore more advanced techniques. The class, as a group, will select specific learning opportunities to learn during the 8-weeks!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Learn How to:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="line-height: 22px; margin-left: 2em;"&gt;
  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Select or design patterns that make strong stained glass pieces&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a cricut machine to create patterns in vinyl&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Use a ring saw to make ‘impossible’ cuts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Incorporate special materials like shells, rocks, ceramics, or mirror&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Make 3D forms&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Add decorative wire work or solder details&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Finish your projects with hobby came or edge beading&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;Students can either come to the first class with a pattern selected to jump in right away, or use the first class to discuss their project with the instructor. Because the needs of these self-directed projects are entirely unique, students will be responsible for providing the own copper foil, solder, and any faming material, hangers, wire, or chain as needed.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;This course has a pre-requisite of Stained Glass for Beginners.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Required to Bring:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Safety glasses, if you have a pair that you prefer. Otherwise safety glasses will be provided.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;2 copies of your pattern(s)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Glass*&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 22px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Rachel Dlugos got her start in glass in the Glass Fusion Collective studio, and quickly fell in love with stained glass, glass fusing, and mosaics (really anything that involves breaking glass). With a degree in Fine Art from the Savannah College of Art and Design and a background in product design and user research, she brings a uniquely analytical eye to the studio. She has quickly become known for her technical skill and craftsmanship, and her teaching style reflects that same commitment to doing things well and understanding why they work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Thursday: All Levels Class with Rachel Dlugos (03/04/2027)</title>

&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style=""&gt;Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/rdlugos_glassfusing.jpg" title="Beginner to Intermediate projects with Bud Spindt.

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;If you've ever wanted to work with glass but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you! Over ten weeks you'll build a real foundation in the craft — learning to cut and assemble glass, load the kiln, read firing schedules, and finish your work — with an emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill so you understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you come in with a project idea already in mind or need help finding your direction, you'll leave with finished pieces you're proud of. There’s no experience necessary, and repeat students are encouraged - there is always something new to learn!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;New students, your registration includes a small sampling of COE 96 glass colors and one sheet of clear glass to practice with, and a 12" x 12" sheet of shelf paper. Returning students, are able to purchase the starter pack for an additional $45 (Returning students: click "add starter pack" on the registration page if you want add this to your registration total).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Thursday: All Levels Class with Rachel Dlugos (03/11/2027)</title>

&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style=""&gt;Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;If you've ever wanted to work with glass but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you! Over ten weeks you'll build a real foundation in the craft — learning to cut and assemble glass, load the kiln, read firing schedules, and finish your work — with an emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill so you understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you come in with a project idea already in mind or need help finding your direction, you'll leave with finished pieces you're proud of. There’s no experience necessary, and repeat students are encouraged - there is always something new to learn!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Thursday: All Levels Class with Rachel Dlugos (03/18/2027)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="" color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;em style=""&gt;Registration Closes on January 7, 2027&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style=""&gt;Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Segoe, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/rdlugos_glassfusing.jpg" title="Beginner to Intermediate projects with Bud Spindt. From platters to kiln formed molds." target="_blank" style="font-size: 16.0016px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41);"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.glassfusioncollective.com/resources/rdlugos_glassfusing.jpg" alt="" border="0" title="" width="345" height="381"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;If you've ever wanted to work with glass but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you! Over ten weeks you'll build a real foundation in the craft — learning to cut and assemble glass, load the kiln, read firing schedules, and finish your work — with an emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill so you understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you come in with a project idea already in mind or need help finding your direction, you'll leave with finished pieces you're proud of. There’s no experience necessary, and repeat students are encouraged - there is always something new to learn!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
