Get ready to experience the magic of molten glass in this exciting, hands-on evening workshop. A night of hot glass combing invites participants to step into the heat and discover the thrill of working with flowing, glowing glass — no prior experience required. With professional guidance and close supervision, participants will: Learn how to safely handle material and equipment Prepare hot glass molds Select and layer coloured glass Work with a partner (a friend, date, or the instructor) to comb and swirl molten glass into stunning, one-of-a-kind designs Each participant will create two unique combed glass pieces, rich with movement and colour. Finished works will be professionally fired and completed by the Studio, ready for pick up the following week. Perfect for a date night, friends’ night out, or anyone looking for a truly memorable creative experience, this workshop delivers plenty of wow — and glowing glass. All project materials and firings included. When: Friday, January 16, 2026, from 7 to 9 pm Fee: $95 + HST (includes all project materials and firings) (member discount does not apply) Limit: 8 persons
Begin the new year with curiosity and creativity. Join Melanie for this three-day course exploring a single subject matter in stained and fused glass. From design concept to execution, participants will create eight, 4 x 6-inch panels featuring classic glass techniques, including copper foil, lead came, copper overlay, solder sculpture, glass painting, fusing, impasto, and more. Each composition will be a unique personal expression of harmonious form and craftsmanship. Upon completion, the individual pieces will be assembled into a refined multi-panel frame, ready to display, cherish, or gift to someone special. All project materials and firings included. When: Saturdays, January 10, 17, and 24, 2026, from 10 am to 4 pm Fee: $425 + HST (includes all project materials and firings)

One of the most exciting benefits of fused glass is its remarkable recyclable potential. Whether glass has been previously fused or set aside in the “scrap” pile, if it is COE-compatible, it can be reimagined into fresh, custom material and become part of an entirely new masterpiece. In this two-part workshop, participants will spend the first evening transforming cast-off 96 COE glass into stunning, one-of-a-kind hot glass rondels known as pot melts. Through the firing process, colour and movement naturally emerge, creating swirling, organic glass disks that are impossible to replicate. Inspired by their newly created pot melts, participants will return the following week to cut, compose, and fuse these unique elements into a finished artwork — choosing to create a picture, panel, or small sculptural piece that highlights the dynamic patterns within the glass. Each participant will complete one finished fused glass artwork, either a 10-inch round or an 8-inch x 10-inch rectangular piece. Some prior glass fusing experience is required. All project materials and firings are included. Display hardware is not included When: Thursdays, January 22, and 29, 2026, from 7 to 10 pm Fee: $295 + HST (includes all project materials and firings)
