Fun with Fusing Class (8+)

Create your own fused glass work of art! Sundays, classes starting at 11am, with the last class of the day starting at 3:00pm. You choose your 50 minute time.

Spend a fun-filled hour in our studio with an experienced instructor to guide you through the steps of making your own fused glass tile. You’ll craft one tile during the 50-minute experience. Have a blast choosing colors, cutting shapes and designing your art. This is a great activity for families, couples and small groups of up to 4 people. We encourage students to bring sketches to class so that there is plenty of time for selecting colors and cutting shapes. The surface area of a tile is approximately 5″x7″.

Children ages 8-12 must have an adult present.

No experience needed.

Tiles will be ready for pickup by Wednesday morning after class. Shipping is available for an additional fee.

There is a non-refundable $25 deposit when booking classes. We allow cancellations up to 48 hours before the start time of your class. If you cancel less than 48 hours before the start of your class, you will not receive a refund.

Due to the nature of the schedule we allow a 5 minute grace period. Any tardiness beyond 5 minutes may result in a forfeited class and payment.

Monday & Tuesday, April 29 & 30, 2024 at 10 a.m. & 12 p.m.

Cat Kid Comic Club: The Musical is written by Kevin Del Aguila and Brad Alexander – the team that brought you DOG MAN: THE MUSICAL! Comics go comically off the rails in this musical adaptation of Dav Pilkey’s hilarious book series. Cat Kid and Molly Pollywog have started an epic club to teach 21 rambunctious baby frogs how to make their own comics! Their fishy father Flippy is overjoyed that his kids will learn to unleash their creativity, but when the frogs’ constant bickering and outrageous imaginations send their comics comically off the rails, Flippy flips out! Will the club survive? Will the frogs ever get along? And will creativity finally save the day? All will be answered in this madcap musical based on Dav Pilkey’s irreverently hilarious book series.
