Glass Studio

Located on the lower level of the New Building, right next door to the clay studio, the glass studio houses a large kiln and four smaller kilns for the purposes of glass fusing and slumping. It is also an ideal space for stained glass and glass bead making, and we offer classes in all of these mediums. This studio can also be used for jewelry making.The studio features durable counter spaces as well as grinders,glass saws and glass cutters.
