I am excited to be teaching a class in Minneapolis, Minnesota in April at FOCI glass studio.

April 9-13 from 9-5 with a 1 hour lunch break each day.

Over the course of an intensive week, we are gonna learn the basics of neon bending while also learning to make vector patterns and designs using inkscape. @inkscape

This is an all levels class- prior glass experience (or graphic design experience) would be helpful, but is not required.

We are gonna learn to build digital sketchbooks of designs- complete with cost estimates all from the comfort of our own computers as well as practicing the basic skills needed to make those designs in any color or shape :)

They said they have some computers, but I highly recommend students bring their own computers, preferably laptops. Then you can edit your designs wherever you want.

Land of 10,000 lakes here I come!

@june it's gonna be fun! Neon is a really unique, rigid all over glow, and working with glass is interesting and different. We are using open source design software so it's as accessible as possible for all.
