Classes & Workshops
A structured range of stained glass classes spans beginner foundations through advanced technical intensives, developed over years of teaching and studio practice. Workshops run through partner studios, shops, and arts organizations nationwide, with private instruction available exclusively in my Camas, Washington studio nestled in the forest.
Private classes offer focused, tailored instruction for individuals or small groups. Sessions prioritize creative technique, using the same methods practiced in a working studio.
Please contact me for information on hosting a workshop or arranging private instruction.
