During the two-hour class, each student will learn how to cut sheet glass before gluing finely figured shards on treated wood and grouting designs into a state of permanence only undone by the will of Zeus. Dreaming up patterns evoking flowers or landscapes, this class is well suited for spring, with the 6 x 6-inch tiles making Mother's Day gifts sure to wow beyond classical works of macaroni impressionism. Classes are open to ages seven and up, and can accommodate up to 10 people, allowing for close attention from the teacher. Students can take home the freshly minted mosaics at the end of the class.
A non-profit dedicated to promoting glass as a visuals arts medium, Sonoran is one of the premier glass arts teaching facilities in the desert southwest. Before or after their class, students should also check out Sonoran's gallery of creative glass sculptures made by instructors and students.
