What You'll Get
Glass provides a resting place for wine, evening wear for Cinderellas, and a more dramatic exit from 44th-floor windows for Bruce Willises. Shatter artistic inhibitions with today's Groupon for stained-glass-making classes at McMow Art Glass, located in Lake Worth. Choose between two options:
*For $35, you get a five-week beginners' stained-glass class (up to a $75 value). *For $59, you get an all-day beginners' stained-glass class (a $150 value).
McMow etches world-renowned glass-staining wisdom into the minds of aspiring Chagalls. Set in the company's 10,000-square-foot studio, the classes will infuse students with the aesthetic skills to cut, shape, housetrain, and assemble glass panels to become colorful custom works. In the five-week beginners' course—with one three-hour class each week—students will give wings to a stained-glass butterfly and concoct one additional project of their choosing. Alternatively, artisans with limited time to defuse a bomb by creating a gorgeous work of art can take the one-day, eight-hour crash course, which covers the same skills.
To foster a friendly but intimate learning environment, one instructor will preside over 6–10 students in the classes. All required equipment is provided during lessons, and students who wish to purchase their own equipment for at-home projects or artfully tinting scuba masks will receive a discount. For five-week students, a 10% discount is given within the duration of the lessons, and for one-day students, the 10% discount is available on the day of the seminar only.

About McMow Art Glass
Master craftsmen lead the production team at McMow Art Glass, bringing experienced craftsmanship to each new project that the 9,000-square-foot studio takes on and they teach classes to students of all skill levels. A group of 25 employees with art degrees from all over the country assist the veterans, and together they produce an array of fine glass items that range from classic stained windows to carvings, etchings, and mosaics for residences and commercial buildings. Class topics start with the basic skills of fusion and slumping, and ultimately cover more advanced techniques such as how to repair a broken vase after using it as the ball in a harmless game of rugby.
