Are you looking for focused time to practice complex color techniques? This course will introduce students to overlays, focusing on the encalmo process of joining two or more bubbles of color together to form one piece. Class time will be divided between demonstrations and supervised work time. This course is designed for students with basic to intermediate glassblowing skills. Students should have taken several glassblowing classes prior to this course. 

*Registration includes access to Student Open Blow on Friday evenings from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. during the class run time.
