A week of all things glass! Each day will be filled with making art in both glass fusing and mosaics! We'll work together on a variety of hands-on activities that will involve learning how to cut glass, creating fused glass items like sun-catchers and learning mosaic techniques to create different kinds of mosaics (including garden stakes) throughout the week. This camp is intended for campers who will be able to attend all 5 days. All the activities build on skills learned the day before. Also, all projects will take more than one day to complete. Friday will be our grouting day so come in clothes that can get dirty! Get ready for a week of fun: creativity, innovation, and friendship! Prepare for an empowering and exciting week of learning valuable skills! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact Marissa at Marissa@rutlandmint.org.
