Continuing Education Classes:
These classes are less structured than the beginning classes and operate more like workshops in that you choose the project you want to make. Help is given where needed and you work at your own pace.

These classes offer you the opportunity to move beyond the basics and learn how to construct a box, a lamp, or other 3-D project, a stepping stone or any number of other ideas you have. Or you can use this time to improve your skills and all in the company of other glass enthusiasts.

Classes: six weeks, two and one-half hour per session.

Fee: $40.

Included: use of shop tools (grinders, saws, etc) during your class time.
