Working with local artist Gayle Church to make a pâte de verre bowl, you will get a snapshot of the lengthy production in which powdered glass of various hues is mixed, blended, and fused. You will be guided through combining colours and the technique required to pack the powdered glass into a mold. Projects will be taken away to be fused in the artist’s kiln. After cooling you can join the artist at the Gallery on Wednesday November 6th at 6:00pm for the reveal or pick up your bowl at the Gallery anytime after.
