About this event

Half Day Taster or One Day workshops making a copper foil stained glass creation, creating something similar to a small star, leaf, simple landscape or somehting of your choice.

Ruth is a glass artist and tutor who has been designing and creating bespoke traditional and contemporary stained glass since 1998 and holding workshops since 2017.

During the workshop Ruth will guide and support you through the process of choosing your glass, scoring and cutting, grinding, copper foiling and soldering.

Prior to the workshop we can work together to design your glass piece so your pattern is ready to be brought to life on the day or choose one of our patterns available in the studio.
