Stained Glass for Beginners with artist Brenda Holt as instructor is scheduled for six Wednesdays beginning January 23, 2019 and continuing for five consecutive Wednesdays (January 23, 30 and February 6, 13, 20 and 27). Instruction includes cutting the glass, placing each glass piece and soldering and fixing the glass to create a stained glass treasure. At the end of the six classes each student will have a one of a kind stained glass creation.
The classes are sponsored by the Rutherford County Visual Artist Guild and will be held at the Visual Arts Center, 160 N. Main Street, Rutherfordton, NC. Class fee for all six classes is $80 per person due on the first day of class and payable to the instructor. Classes are limited to four students and class slots are filled on a first come/first serve basis.
