Join us for a relaxed, hands-on fused glass session where you’ll learn how to cut, layer and design glass to create your own beautiful pieces. This workshop is suitable for beginners and improvers alike, with plenty of guidance throughout.
During the session, you’ll make three unique fused glass projects, these photos are student pieces:

Once completed, your work will be professionally fired and will usually be ready to collect around a week later.
