Saturday Afternoon, Independent Studio Session
Are you ready to take the leap and work on your own? Independent Studio is open to people that have taken at least 2 instructional classes with one of our instructors, or if you are experienced in glass fusing and would like an exception, please email us a request to join Independent Studio. Each studio session offers you a community to collaborate and share in the joy of fusing glass and making art! There is a studio monitor there to show people where studio equipment can be found, and to make sure the studio is tidy before everyone leaves. This studio monitor is not an instructor!
