The ideal follow-on course to our one-day or half-day classes. You will learn the fundamental skills of hot glass sculpture to shape a flower and a bird - getting the feel of how to master this magical material, followed by a blown piece like perhaps a tumbler. In the afternoon expand your skills to create a bowl, or plate.

A superb introduction to 3D glass forming techniques using moulds to create unique and personal kiln cast glass pieces. You will work with a variety of materials to make models ready for casting using the 'open cast' and 'lost wax' methods.
Join Katherine Huskie for a playful introduction to creating glass elements for jewellery using flameworking techniques. Move, stretch and transform borosilicate glass and experiment with colour and form.

Take inspiration from nature on this three-day flameworking workshop. Using heat and gravity to manipulate glass in the flame you will learn methods and techniques to bend, stretch, sculpt and carve molten glass, creating sculptural objects, inspired by natural forms.
Join our Glassblowing Weekend course - a wonderful introduction to glassmaking with plenty of hands-on practice. Over two days learn how to gather, blow and shape hot molten glass straight from the furnace.
Create 3D sculptures using hot glass manipulation with traditional fusing techniques as a base. The emphasis will be on experimentation and is suitable for intermediate to advanced students who can embrace failure as being part of the learning curve in testing the limits of glass fusing.
