• COURSE (FULL) | A446 | Tiffany-style stained glass: Animal lamp (March 5, 12, 19, and 26, 2026)

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

    Inspired by the latest trends in decorative animal lamps, this four-week advanced course focuses on mastering both form and function while creating a Tiffany-style stained glass animal lamp approximately 6-inch x 6-inch x 10-inch. Designed for experienced glass artists seeking a rewarding challenge, this project moves beyond flat construction into fully realized three-dimensional form. Both challenging and delightful, participants will design and construct a custom three-dimensional armature that support curved, organic animal shapes. Emphasis will be placed on structure, balance, and colour selection, ensuring each lamp is both visually engaging and structurally sound. Drawing inspiration from our favourite animal friends — such as owls, foxes, turtles, cats, and other expressive forms — participants will refine advanced copper-foil and soldering techniques while learning how to manage multi-plane construction. These playful yet sophisticated lamps are sure to bring a smile and light up the dark corners of the season. All project materials and hardware are included. No beginners, please. When: Thursdays, March 5, 12, 19, and 26, 2026, from 7 to 10 pm Fee: $325 + HST (includes all project materials and hardware) THIS COURSE IS FULL

  • COURSE | G312 | Fused glass mosaic: Wall planter or tealight holder

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

    Spring showers bring wall flowers Celebrate the long-awaited return of spring by creating a vibrant and functional accent for your garden or patio. In this four-evening workshop, participants will design and fabricate a series of fused glass mosaic butterflies along with a coordinating fused glass mosaic backdrop. Once completed, the glass elements will be mounted onto a metal frame with a planter or tealight holder, creating a luminous seasonal feature to enjoy outdoors throughout the warmer months. Working with 96 COE glass and a range of compatible accessories, participants will explore two distinct fused glass mosaic techniques that achieve a clean, contemporary surface without the use of traditional grout. Through guided demonstrations and studio work time, participants will design, cut, and assemble their glass components while developing confidence with mosaic composition in kiln-formed glass. Following kiln firing and slumping, rare earth magnets will be adhered to the butterflies, allowing them to be positioned and repositioned on the metal armature. This flexible mounting system makes it easy to rearrange the composition outdoors during the growing season and later bring the butterflies indoors to brighten winter spaces. All project materials, kiln firings, magnets, and metal armature are included. When: Thursdays, April 2, 9, 23, and 30, 2026, from 7 to 10 pm Fee: $595 + HST (includes all project materials, kiln firings, magnets, and metal armature) Beginner fusers are welcome!
