Middle School Camp! Intro to Glass Fusing

Using enamel paints, translucent glass, and layering, students will learn how to create a permanent 3D image in fused glass. Camp will cover how to cut shapes out of colorful sheet glass, paint, then use the heat of a kiln (oven) to bond it all together. Students will craft decorative and functional forms like coasters, pendants, wall tiles, and plates exploring texture, color, and pattern.

No experience necessary. Open to all rising and current middle school students.
