Glass fusing assures joy and fun!
Glass Fusing (Kiln-Fired Glass) Projects with Bonnie Rubinstein
September 16-20, 2024
About this Class…
If you have ever been intrigued by glass, but did not think glasswork was accessible to you, now is your opportunity! Students will learn all about the fascinating art form of fused glass and create their own colorful ‘masterpieces’. Fused glass allows anyone to create intentional art shapes and compositions, which are maintained even after firing in the kiln. Students can create themes and designs that are unique to their style, resulting in sparkling glass pieces that are truly unique. During the week, students will explore what fused glass is, how it differs from blown glass, and how to cut colored pieces and lay them while cold into your composition. Participants will also learn about kilns which heat glass in a contained space which is very different than the furnace systems used when blowing class. No worries- you will have no exposure to heat at all! Students will be provided with the computerized firing schedules that Bonnie has developed for successful fuses and slumps. Examples will be shown of fused glass projects by nationwide glass artists for inspiration. Participants will dive into making their own creations!
