Thursday Evening Session, All Levels Class with Master Artist Bud Spindt

Beginner to Intermediate projects with Bud Spindt. From platters to kiln formed molds.Do you love glass? Have you always wanted to try making your own fused glass work but didn't know where to start? Or are you experienced, but not ready to jump into independent studio? Join Master Artist Bud Spindt for the Thursday Evening All Levels Class! Bud instructs beginner and intermediate students on glass fusing techniques while introducing tools used to accomplish your work. Bud structures his class where you bring a project idea, or have something in mind, and he helps you learn from start to finish how to fuse glass. Advanced students benefit from Bud's knowledge and experience, and it's just plain fun to be with other artists! 

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. Please bring all supplies to the first day of class.

Example of a beginner project, which is strips of colored glass layered and fused together

Note: Please do not bring outside scrap glass to class, we only use COE 96 glass and cannot guarantee the glass you purchased elsewhere is the right coefficient for our firing schedule. COE 90 or non-fusing glass will contaminate our work space and cause problems if it gets into our scrap glass that is for sale.
