Make art while on vacation in Costa Rica
Beginning Glass Fusing classes are offered at Gecko Glass studio and are taught by Lavae Aldrich. The class includes:
- Materials
- Tools
- Two kiln firings.
You’ll learn the basics of kiln-formed glass while making your piece of artwork, including:
- glass cutting
- design and layout
- fusing
- slumping
For a first project you’ll choose from molds to make a 6” x 6” plate, dish, votive holder, or a nite-lite. Classes focused on jewelry, stenciled powders, and metal inclusions are scheduled by request – just ask me in advance, if that’s what you’d rather do, to schedule a focused class.
Gecko Glass studio is just 1 ½ kilometers outside of central Sámara. It’s about 30 minute walk, mostly along the beach.
Fee: c10,000 ($20.00), 2 hour class. Students should allow at least 72 hours for firing (before you leave town).
Reservations are required: Call 8977-1576 or email lavae@casaelgecko.com
