Join us in making a gorgeous stained glass suncatcher!
Choose from an assortment of suncatcher designs, glass colors, textures and transparencies to completely customize it into a one of a kind piece. You’ll learn how to cut glass, grind it to fit a pattern, apply copper foil, solder it all together, and finally apply a metal from around the outside edge. This is a beginners class, perfect for anyone that’s curious about the process and techniques that go into making Tiffany Style Stained Glass.
Please wear close-toed shoes and natural fibers like cotton/wool (jeans and a t-shirt work great). All long hair should be pulled back.
Age 10+, under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian.
General Admission will be available on August 12th after 5 pm; to get early access to all remaining 2024 workshops click here.
Joy Riggs started making Stained Glass in 2000. Her passion for it ultimately led her to open Studio 116 in Kingsport where she specializes in custom stained glass panels and whimsical suncatchers. Joy loves to create unique pieces based on her customers’ ideas, and enjoys the challenge of trying something different.
