These workshops are designed for those new to the craft of stained glass but can be adapted to provide challenge to those with some experience too. Most of these workshops involve a full day and are offered with a delicious lunch included. Others are half days in the afternoon.
They are usually offered to a maximum of four people at a time, although some can be extended to a group of six if necessary. This allows me to support students well and ensures that each of them produce something to be proud of.
The craft can be a little physically demanding in some respects, and a reasonable level of dexterity and strength in one’s hands is necessary for a good outcome. We will be standing for most of the day too, so being comfortable with this is also a bonus.
The workshops are usually held at the weekends- Saturday/Sunday(and occasionally Fridays) at my studio in Crewkerne, Somerset. If you have a small group of friends that would enjoy a particular class on another date, I am happy to look at arranging this with you.Just get in touch via the enquiry box or call me for a chat about your requirements. Thank you.
