EVENTS

To discuss the stained glass course, workshop or event that would suit you, including dates, call Gillian on 07714 458813 or click here to email.

We work with small groups to ensure plenty of individual attention. The time is planned to meet your needs, either as a complete beginner or as someone who already has some glass work experience. For larger groups, up to eight, David and I teach together.

The workshops are practical and fun, and there is a good choice of designs to select from if you are a beginner and project ideas for the more advanced.

All the workshops take place in the Strawberry Glass studio, unless otherwise indicated. We are based at Unique Cottage Farm Studios, a thriving arts and crafts facility with ample onsite parking and good disabled access in Spalding, Lincolnshire. We are also able to offer workshops at other suitable venues.

WORKSHOPS TEACHING THE TRADITIONAL GLASS SKILLS ARE AVAILABLE ALL YEAR

01/01/12

onwards
We teach several workshops every month, covering both leadwork and copper foiling, and planned around the needs of the students. You will always take away with you a unique and colourful piece of stained glass, along with new skills and insights into the world of glass working. The workshops are practical and fun and a good opportunity to try a large range of tools and decide which ones suit you best.
