Beginning in May and continuing through August, these one-week master classes will offer instruction in a variety of techniques including glassblowing, flameworking, glass fusing, hot sculpting, neon, and metalsmithing.
Each teaching artist is internationally recognized and brings with them a set of highly specific and refined skill sets unique to each studio in the Glass Pavilion. The classes will run one week, Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. with lunch provided. Each week-long class will cost $950 for Museum members and $1,055.50 for non-members.
Many of the classes are open to artists of all skill levels but some will require intermediate or advanced experience. Each class will be limited to eight students and scholarships are available. Participants must be 18 years of age or older.
The Museum has a number of scholarship opportunities available for youth and adult students. Students submitting a Scholarship Application Form cannot register for class in advance. Only one scholarship form may be submitted per class, but multiple forms may be submitted for multiple class requests. Scholarships are competitive and the volume of submissions is high; unfortunately applying does not guarantee automatic approval. Scholarship applications for glass studio master classes are currently closed, please check back at a later date for updated information.
