About the Event
What the class covers:
Flamework. You will learn the basics of torch work for small scale sculpting and bead making.
The class runs about an hour and a half. We have five torches on the lampworking bench, so groups of five to ten will rotate through stations during the session. The minimum to run the class is five participants and the maximum is ten. If more than ten people sign up, we will run two back to back sessions. Everyone is welcome to stay for the full three hours so the whole group can hang out together.
You are welcome to bring beverages and snacks.
