Join us in our glass studio for a special hands-on glassmaking workshop in Canberra.
In this workshop, you will learn the basics of creating your very own coloured enamel glass lantern.
Our experienced instructor, Lisa Cahill, is an internationally recognised glass artist with 25 years of experience and loves welcoming you to her fully equipped kiln-forming and cold-working studio in Fyshwick. Lisa will guide you through every step of the process, and you'll learn how to mix and paint glass enamels and then watch as your creation comes to life.
You will begin by learning about how glass enamels can be used to create opaque or transparent colour on glass. Your teacher will show you how to mix the colours to create your own detailed design or organic pattern. You can choose from a large assortment of templates and designs or bring your own ideas to the class. Once all four sides are complete, they will be fired in the kiln. Once fired, these panels are combined to form a fully functional lantern to enjoy in your home.
Being fired in the kiln will bring out the unique colours and textures of your art glass lantern. Once the firing is complete, your lantern will be ready for pickup or postage a few days later (please follow us on social media to be advised about pick-up times and dates).
Please note: This class is suitable for all ages above 5 years. Children between 5 and 10 can join under adult supervision, making it a fantastic experience for families looking to bond over art.
What you'll get
  • An apron to wear throughout.
  • All the materials, glass enamels, glass, and tools needed to create your glass lantern.
  • Your fired pieces ready to collect a day or so after your class.
