This workshop is not recommended for those who are pregnant or nursing (we will be working with lead). Max 3 students per class. Participants will be on their feet for the duration of the class. Unfortunately the studio space is not wheelchair accessible.

What to bring:
- closed lid water bottle
- close toed shoes (mandatory requirement)
- sweater (we are working in my garage studio which is heated but just to ensure your comfort, a sweater is recommended in cooler months!)
- safety glasses if you have a pair (otherwise I will provide some)
Cancellation policy:
As a general rule, classes cannot be cancelled or refunded. The only exception is due to illness- if you are sick or feeling unwell, please let me know. I have two small kids and a mom in long-term care so I do take health and wellness seriously. I only offer a limited number of timeslots each month as I am balancing my family life and my own art production, so an alternative date may not be available, in which case I will refund you. If you can’t make your time slot for a reason other than illness, please find a friend to take your spot and I’m happy to have them come in your place.
Disclaimers:
-solder used in stained glass contains lead. I take lead safety very seriously so will have gloves and special lead hand wipes available for all students. Note that there is no respiratory risk with lead solder (it will not get hot enough to be a danger for vapour) so good hand hygiene is enough to prevent any health risks from handling lead.
-we will be working with glass, and we will be breaking it. Sometimes nicks and small cuts happen. I will teach you safe glass handling techniques and we will be wearing gloves (supplied by me), but I do have a stash on Bandaids on-hand if needed. :)
