Stained Glass Workshop

Shape it. Foil it. Solder it. Create desert-inspired stained glass.

Create your own stained glass cactus in this beginner-friendly workshop inspired by desert charm, natural structure, and vibrant color.

This class is part of the Botanical Glass Series, where plant forms and natural inspiration guide the stained glass design process.

In this hands-on workshop, participants will craft a finished cactus design while learning the fundamentals of traditional copper foil stained glass techniques in a fun and approachable studio environment.

During this 3-hour immersive workshop, you'll:

• Cut and shape glass for your cactus design
• Apply copper foil and assemble your piece
• Solder for a clean, finished structure
• Learn proper tool handling and studio safety
• Finish and polish your stained glass piece for display

Students will also have the opportunity to personalize their cactus with unique color choices and decorative details, making each finished piece one of a kind.
