During this fun, child-friendly session you will learn the principles and theory of glass cutting, fusing and firing. You will then work on your own design and make a stunning 10cm x 10cm glass piece.

Your glass will need to be kiln-fired after the workshop is finished.

This process takes 24 hours and will usually takes place within a week of the session. Once your fused artwork has been kiln-fired and cooled, the Museum will contact you to let you know it is ready for collection.
