Fused Glass Workshop In Grafton
The Grafton Community Library will present an introductory Fused Glass Workshop as part of the Grafton Community Arts Program that has been awarded grant funding from The Arts Center of the Capital Region.
Participants will learn the basic properties of glass as related to fusing and the process and techniques of fusing dichroic glass to make jewelry or small glass pieces. Dichroic glass’ main characteristic is that it transmits one wave length of light and reflects another, which means that it displays an array of colors and shows different colors depending on the angle of view. This makes it an exciting, ideal material for artistic endeavors.
