Description:
I’m excited to invite you to be part of a new experiment we’re calling Kiln Club — a monthly gathering where we learn, explore, and create fused glass projects together in a book-club style format. The idea is that each month we’ll focus on a new technique or project, share ideas, and support each other as we grow our glass skills. First Meeting: Thursday, October 16 at 5:30pm We’ll kick things off with a potluck dinner and planning session. Bring a dish to share and your ideas! At this first meeting, we’ll: Talk through the Kiln Club plan and format Decide on our first group project Set the calendar for upcoming sessions About Kiln Club Think “book club” but for fused glass. Each month we’ll have a theme: sometimes technique-driven (like pulling vitrograph, combing, or coldworking), other times project-based (like making coasters, suncatchers, or platters). We’ll learn together, share resources and ideas, and make our own unique versions of each project. Everyone will take home finished work and a growing library of new techniques. I’d love for you to join this first gathering and help shape the future of Kiln Club. Looking forward to making this a fun, creative addition to our upcoming winter season. Think it, Make It! Heather
