Whew! After a busy time finishing up the Borders and Bridges project, which was a great culmination of my M.Ed project and installation work around immigration and education, I'm looking ahead to new and exciting things. First, I'll be offering a beadmaking class in Northampton starting mid June. Here's all the info....
Introduction to Glass Beadmaking
Tuesday Nights, June 22- July 13, 7-9pm
This fun class will introduce students to flameworking by learning to make
stunning glass beads. Basic techniques such as using stringers, cane, dots,
layering, and raking will be covered, and students will leave with a variety
of beautiful handmade beads, maybe even small sculptures.
Cost: $115, materials included
Instructor: Katie Richardson, katierayart.etsy.com, katierayarts.mosaicglobe.com
To sign up: Email katierayrich@gmail.com. A $50 deposit is required to hold your space. This can be paid through Paypal or by sending a check to Katie at PO Box 1486, Belchertown, MA 01007.
Location: Valley Hands, 342 Pleasant St, Northampton, MA
