Denver Traditional Leaded Stained Glass Class

Build a 6-inch square stained-glass panel using the traditional lead came method. Work from a pre-cut design as you learn the essential steps of this compact, hands-on class.

• Explore a stained-glass technique practiced since the Middle Ages
• Shape lead came and cut angles for panel joints
• Solder and glaze your completed panel
• Work from a provided pre-cut design without glass cutting
• Bring glasses for a clear view of detailed work

Itinerary

1. Arrive at our studio and be amazed by all the beautiful glass creations on display.

2. Watch your instructor demo the entire lead came process – don’t be intimidated! It may look tricky at first, but we’ll guide you step by step.

3. Time to get hands-on! You’ll bend, cut, solder, and glaze your way to a stunning finished panel.

4. Wash up thoroughly using the heavy metal soap provided (you'll be working with lead, so it's a must!), and, yes, it might get messy! But you’ll walk away with a smile and your completed stained-glass panel, ready to impress!

5. Don’t forget to check out one of our other fantastic classes – there’s always something new to learn!
