Cast Your Hand in Glass! (2 days)
Cast Your Hand in Glass! (2 days)
Get introduced to glass casting by taking an alginate mold of your hand and then casting it in glass! This 2-day workshop is perfect for beginners and seasoned casters alike.
On the first day, learn to use alginate, wax, and plaster to make a mother mold to produce more than one positive of your hand, then make the mold for the kiln and calculate the amount of glass needed to fill your mold. On day two, divest the mold and coldwork/finish if needed. Students will make one clear casting.
Clear-casting billets, mold materials, tools, and kiln firings for class projects are included. Colored glass will be available for purchase. No experience is needed. Ages 16+
