This class had a tremendous response when if was offered earlier so another class has been added for April 20th. Explore the possibilities of glass fusing using Dichroic glass, a marriage of space age technology and ancient art form.

In the 1970's it was used in art glass and now is quickly becoming a desirable art form. Techniques including cutting, safety, compatibility and design will be discussed. Emphasis will be on creative expression while using sound methods and techniques. Each student will complete the class with a selection of jewelry pieces which may include pendants, earrings, brooches, cabochons and jewelry components that may be used in other jewelry projects.
