FEATURED ARTIST WORKSHOP FOR FALL CONFERENCE
Carrie Strope Sohayda : Mosaic Glass Art:  
Explore ways to incorporate recycled glass into your curriculum. There will be several samples and project options available to choose from. We will be working with glass paints, window glass and natural materials that you can take home to fire in your kiln. You may also work out arrangements with the instructor to receive your fired samples after the conference, as well as learning the basics of mosaic to create glass art that you can share with your students.
