Burritt Folk School

Join us for a fun Glass Fusing project! You will be making 2 Suncatchers in the design of your choice. We will walk you through each step, giving you tricks and tips on how to use our glass fusing materials and tools along the way. Once completed the projects will be fired and ready for pick-up a week after the class.

This sunflower is so much fun to create. It is composed of 2 complete layers of open work. Although it may look like a more intermediate level workshop, even if you have only cut glass a few times, this workshop is for you. Come spend the day at Burritt and take home a cheerful sunflower to brighten your day

As a traditional pottery form, face jugs have a long history, from pre-Columbian America, ancient Greece, and medieval Europe, as well as Africa. The distinctive face jugs of the American south originated in the early 1800s, developed from African art forms, and served multiple purposes from practical (carrying water or other liquids) to spiritual (serving as grave markers) to self-identification. In this class, you will carry on this tradition by creating your own distinctive face vessel using pre-made wheel-thrown mug forms. No prior experience is needed in working with clay.  We will have a glazing session on Sunday September 6th.
