Stained Glass Classes
Glass
FX Studio operates on an “open studio” concept. Stained
glass classes are given on an individual basis, with no set start
time. Students arrange when they wish to begin and formal instruction
takes one day. After that, students may come into the studio, when
their schedule permits, to complete their project. Assistance is
provided as required. Your first project should be 150 pieces or
more. The cost is $300.00 + GST for instruction, pattern set up,
tool & equipment rental. Glass, foil & solder are extra.
You will leave this class with a professional panel & the
knowledge & confidence to complete any stained glass project
no matter how challenging. Students are given 60 hours to complete
their first project. Students who wish to do additional projects
in the studio are charged studio time, at the rate of $2.50/hour
or $10.00/day, for space and tool rental. Torch rental for bead
making is also available.
