This workshop is designed for the serious glass addict who wishes to extend their experience from slumping to the next level – 3D glass casting. Kiln casting: creating a 3 dimensional figure by melting glass inside a mold in a kiln.
The workshop covers open cast molding which when fired results in a flat backed but sculptured piece of glass. Participants can make a cast paperweight, jewellery or a plaque.
Students should wear covered footwear (no thongs, sandals) and bring safety glasses, notebook and pens. All materials, equipment and morning/afternoon teas & coffees will be supplied. (Bring your own lunch or see catering options.)
