One Day Boro with Jess Krichelle

 This one day workshop provides an introduction to flameworking with borosilicate glass. Working in clear glass, students will learn to create small sculptural objects. Through a mixture of technical exercises and creative projects, students will delve into the potential of this material. 

What to Expect: Flameworking requires a little practice at heat control with the torch to create successful pieces. After demonstrations, expect to make some successful objects in this class, and a couple failures, while gaining more confidence and skill in the studio. Read more about how to prepare for class on our Registration Info page. 

Flameworking can involve a mix of seated and standing activities, including working with glass rods and torches. The environment can be bright and loud at times. Handling glass and tools may require a certain level of dexterity.  To learn more about accessibility the Accessibility page on our website.

Eligibility: This workshop is designed for beginners and returning students who need a review and/or guided work session. Open to ages 14 and up.

Pick-up: The glass needs to cool down overnight, so the students will have to return to UrbanGlass once notified to pick up their work.
