Stained Glass Flower Workshop

Create beautiful 3D stained glass flowers by shaping and assembling pre-cut glass petals and bending brass and copper stems. This introductory stained glass class covers the basics of the Tiffany-style copper foil method. You’ll learn to foil, burnish, flux, solder, and apply patina while exploring the basic chemistry behind this science-heavy art form. There will be no patterns to follow, giving you the freedom to explore your creativity with playfulness and push your creative boundaries.

Drawing on a past career as a scientist, Kolika brings an experimental and analytical approach to her studio, gathering inspiration with an entrepreneurial spirit. Kanch by Kolika can be found in museum shops, galleries, and specialty culinary stores throughout New England, and of course, in homes across the world, whispering stories of her tropical homeland.
