Glass Beads at the Bench Torch

This introductory class will have students creating beautiful glass beads using a flameworking bench torch and rods of different colored soft glass. Students in this class will learn about the equipment and safety precautions necessary to safely work soft glass into a variety of unique beads. From choosing beautiful color combinations, to swirling and texturing, students will walk away with a number of glass beads ready to be used in their next jewelry project or gifted to a friend! Completion of this class will qualify students to rent the center's glass studio on an individual basis and join the Glass Club, which meets monthly.
