Stained Glass Suncatcher Workshop

August 9 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

$30

Curious about the art of stained-glass? Join us for an introductory level workshop with local stained glass and restoration artist Francis Barkyoumb of Glass Dance Studio. Francis will guide you through the step-by-step process of stained-glass. The workshop will provide you with a pre-cut glass pattern that you will learn to foil and solder. By the end of the class, you will have completed your own colorful summer-themed stained-glass suncatcher for window or garden to take home!

Francis Barkyoumb has been a stained-glass artist since 2009 and began teaching the art form in 2012. In 2022, Francis opened Glass Dance Studio in Branford, Connecticut, where he creates custom pieces of art, restores panels and heirlooms, and offers classes.

This workshop will be structured for the beginner, but all levels of expertise are encouraged to register! Suitable for ages 16 and up.
