Both of these courses are designed for beginners who want to learn the traditional methods used to create a leaded stained glass window. Learners will be guided through all stages of the process,
the use of cartoons (patterns), glass cutting, leading, soldering and cementing.
By the end of the course each learner will have completed one or more small stained glass panels in clear glass.
(Coloured glass is available to buy)

Courses are limited to groups of five so attention is ensured. Demonstration, group and individual instruction and hands on experience are all used for teaching during the course.

The day and evening course are rolling programmes so learners can join the sessions as space becomes available.

All materials stated are included in the price. (Tools provided)
