Learn the basic skills of how to gather and manipulate molten glass, including basic color applications. Please note, this is a moderately physically demanding class. Expect to create a paperweight, glass feather and other solid glass objects. If time allows, participants will begin to learn the blowing process. No experience necessary. This class is a prerequisite for the Intro to Glassblowing class coming up later this year.

Sandwiches, soups and snack options available in the cafe, or participants are welcome to bring their own lunch.

Instructor Claire Cadorette, from Massachusetts, attempts to embody specific states of the human experience. She has a BFA in glass from Rhode Island School of Design. She also studied at the Karlóva Université in the Czech Republic. Claire has participated in gallery openings and performances alike, thematically covering intimacy and alienation. She has worked as an instructor, a farmer and an artist.
