    WORKSHOP | I461 | Seasonal fused glass garden stake series: Winter nights (February 7, 2026)

    Glasstronomy Studios 2600 John St., Unit 108, Markham, ON, Canada

    A beautiful new addition to our Seasonal fused glass garden stake series, Winter nights is the perfect artistic transition into the long, luminous evenings of the season. Inspired by the dancing lights of the Aurora Borealis, this striking design captures movement, depth, and shimmer in glass. Participants will create a layered fused glass panel featuring a multi-layer silhouette, expressive frittage application, and sparkling dichroic star accents that catch the light by day and glow with warmth as nights grow longer. This project balances guided instruction with creative freedom, allowing each piece to reflect individual colour choices and interpretation. The finished work may be displayed as a garden stake or stand-alone glass art piece, bringing seasonal beauty indoors or out. No beginner fusers, please. All project materials and firing are included. Metal garden stake (optional): $95 + HST When: Saturday, February 7, 2026, from 10 am to 4 pm Fee: $325 + HST (includes all project materials and firing) + Metal stake (optional): $95 + HST

    WORKSHOP | G320 | Fused glass landscape: Translating nature into kiln-formed imagery

    Glasstronomy Studios 2600 John St., Unit 108, Markham, ON, Canada

    Nature captivates us with sweeping landscapes and quiet, awe-inspiring vistas. Translating these scenes into glass allows those moments to linger long after the journey has ended. In this workshop, participants will explore how landscape imagery can be interpreted through kiln-formed glass. Techniques such as glass impasto, frit-based texture (frittage), and cut glass applications will be introduced to help build surface interest and structure within a composed glass panel. Working with 96 COE glass and compatible accessories, participants will translate a favourite photograph or remembered landscape into glass. Concepts of depth, colour relationships, and perspective will emerge through thoughtful design, layered construction, and kiln firing. All project materials and kiln firing are included. When: Saturday, April 25, 2026, from 1 pm to 4 pm Fee: $178 + HST (includes all project materials and kiln firing) Beginners are welcome!
