Workshop: Family Jewelry-Mosaic

Workshop: Family Jewelry-Mosaic

Presented by The Umbrella Arts Center at The Umbrella Arts Center

Using a wide selection of precut colored glass pieces, beads, iridized and dichroic glass, create a mini mosaic inside a deep pendant. Once the glass pieces are glued to the metal, grout your pendants with one of the many colored grout available; clean your pieces. Voila! You’ll be provided a black leather cord necklace for each pendant. Fee covers all glass, materials, and tools needed for approximately 4 pieces.

Please note: Attendance required by both an adult and child (included in the registration cost). Parents can register additional children for $45 each.

Important safety note: Students must wear closed toes shoes. Safety glasses will be provided.

This class is led by Glass Artist & Glass Teacher Michel L'Huillier, who writes: "After studying Fine Arts and Art History in Strasbourg, France, I discovered my love for glass. I moved to Boston in 1995 and worked for eight years in a prominent stained glass studio. With almost 30 years of experience in working in the medium, I draw from three different techniques for architectural glass commission work: kiln-forming, fusing, and stained glass. I create functional fused glass objects with intricate colored inlays which are exhibited at juried craft shows: Craft Boston and Paradise City. In 2015 I received the Award of Distinction in Glass at the Craft Boston Holiday show. Since 2004 I have been sharing my passion for glass with adults, families and kids, while teaching stained glass, fusing, mosaic in studios and schools in the metro Boston area."
