Questions often arise as to what are the specific areas of instruction found in these classes. The basic courses in art glass enable students to learn how to construct glass panels, using the Copper Foil or Lead Came methods. In addition, stained glass history is presented at the beginning of each class session. During class time, tools and supplies are available for student use, which is included in the class fee, or can be purchased onsite at a discount. If there is sufficient interest, advanced classes in making lamp shades and jewelry boxes will be offered, at some future date.
The course in metal fabrication consists of instruction in how to cut and join metal, in order to make metal art work from found material. During class time, tools can be borrowed from the instructor, as well as machinery used to cut, grind or join metal, which is included in the class fee.
