We’ve enlisted the help of glass artist Brian Duffy to run this fabulous hands-on session. This four-hour course goes through the entire process of building a stained-glass panel from creating your design, making cut lines, cutting the glass all the way through to leading up and finishing it. You’ll get to take away your very own beautiful stained-glass panel as a reminder of your day and get to display it in your home.
Follow the line, follow the mind

Local artist, David Bannister is hosting this brand-new workshop! Coming with an open mind is key to this workshop to ensure your creativity can flow. This workshop explores ways of drawing that provoke the mind to imagine and conjure something up from nothing.
