      <title>SG Learn to Solder 04/28, 05/19 &amp; 05/20 @ 9:30 - 12:30 pm (05/19/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;Workshop Level: Intermediate:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Able to design and create simple projects with minimal guidance; trained on all studio equipment. Must be able to fit pieces to a pattern and foil.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.gvrglassartists.com/resources/Pictures/Workshop-Proposal-Photos/Square.JPG" alt="" title="" border="0" width="212" height="283"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="https://www.gvrglassartists.com/resources/Pictures/Workshop-Proposal-Photos/Spinner1.JPG" alt="" title="" border="0" width="210" height="280"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;April 28 -&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;For this class you will need your cutting tools, frames, pins, working board, and glass. Look at the picture of the two projects. You will make one project into a spinner and the other project a flat hanging piece. Decide what color(s) you want to use. We will only be constructing one square from each pattern. The flat pictured project is 3.5 X 3.5 while the spinner is 3.75 X 4. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F"&gt;The straight-line pattern has bevels in it which will be provided at a cost of $6.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;We are looking for accurate cutting, fitting and staying within the pattern. Nothing will be soldered this day. After this class you will have three weeks to cut and fit the other 5 panels for each project.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;May 19/20 -&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;For these classes you will bring all your cut, fit and foiled pieces in their individual baggies (this will be explained April 28). You will need your board to pin project to, frames, push pins, flux, solder, heat proof glove or a towel. We will learn various soldering methods and then practice, practice, practice. You can bring your own soldering iron. Pieces will be assembled.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;General supplies to bring to class:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Glass cutting tools: Toyo Cutter, Running Pliers, Grozers, Nippers, Cutting Surface (Quilt-type mats work best)&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Soldering items: solder, flux, applicators, frames, push pins&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Writing Tools: Black Sharpies (fine and regular). Silver Marker&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Other helpful items: A carrying box for projects&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

      <title>CR Lap Grinder Training 05/19 @ 9:30 - 11:00 am (05/19/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;INTERMEDIATE LEVEL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Does your fired project have a wonky edge? Does your bowl wobble? Our lap grinder can help you. It uses ever finer grits to make your project smoother and more finished. In this training workshop, you will learn safety tips; how to set up the lap grinder; how to change wheels and clean them; and how to clean up the grinder at the end.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring 1-3 fired projects to work on.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The lap grinder can be messy, especially the first time. Wear old clothes or an apron; and old closed toe shoes. I recommend you remove your rings, bracelets or watches; and tie back long hair.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please contact Jayne Becker @&amp;nbsp;209-890-5774 with any questions.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>FR Volunteers to Sort SWAG Order First Fri @ 11:00 -2:00 pm (06/05/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;This is the Volunteer Signup to sort SWAG orders for this month - First Friday of the month.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;This is only being sent to the group of people who have expressed interest in assisting.&amp;nbsp; We are limiting signups to avoid having too many people resulting in a backup in the process.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The start time is fluid, we get a text from SWAG when they are about 20-30 minutes away.&amp;nbsp; Expect that time to be somewhere between 11 and 2.&amp;nbsp; We aim to be completed with the sorting of the order by 3pm when the studio closes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks in advance for your help.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>CR Lap Grinder Training 06/16 @ 9:30 - 11:00 am (06/16/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;INTERMEDIATE LEVEL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Does your fired project have a wonky edge? Does your bowl wobble? Our lap grinder can help you. It uses ever finer grits to make your project smoother and more finished. In this training workshop, you will learn safety tips; how to set up the lap grinder; how to change wheels and clean them; and how to clean up the grinder at the end.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring 1-3 fired projects to work on.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The lap grinder can be messy, especially the first time. Wear old clothes or an apron; and old closed toe shoes. I recommend you remove your rings, bracelets or watches; and tie back long hair.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>FR Volunteers to Sort SWAG Order Second Fri @ 11:00 -2:00 pm (07/10/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;This is the Volunteer Signup to sort SWAG orders for this month - Second Friday of the month.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;This is only being sent to the group of people who have expressed interest in assisting.&amp;nbsp; We are limiting signups to avoid having too many people resulting in a backup in the process.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The start time is fluid, we get a text from SWAG when they are about 20-30 minutes away.&amp;nbsp; Expect that time to be somewhere between 11 and 2.&amp;nbsp; We aim to be completed with the sorting of the order by 3pm when the studio closes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks in advance for your help.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;INTERMEDIATE LEVEL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Does your fired project have a wonky edge? Does your bowl wobble? Our lap grinder can help you. It uses ever finer grits to make your project smoother and more finished. In this training workshop, you will learn safety tips; how to set up the lap grinder; how to change wheels and clean them; and how to clean up the grinder at the end.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring 1-3 fired projects to work on.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The lap grinder can be messy, especially the first time. Wear old clothes or an apron; and old closed toe shoes. I recommend you remove your rings, bracelets or watches; and tie back long hair.&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;WORKSHOP LEVELS&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F"&gt;Beginners:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; First time users! Learn how to safely cut thicker pieces of glass art such as “Pattern Bars” and “Scrap Boxes” (If you don’t know what these are, please ask a fellow member to let you take a look). Once you have created a pattern bar, scrap box, or other FUSED project that is thicker than 6mm (&amp;gt; 2 layers of glass), sign up for this training and BRING YOUR PROJECT with you to the training. No samples will be available.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F"&gt;ntermediate/Advanced:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; If you have attended this training before and you have created more items that need cutting, please feel free to sign up for a time slot.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Workshop location: Ramada&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Time Slot scheduling: Please schedule yourself in one of the 15-minute sessions.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Learn to cut pattern bars (7 layers thick, fused glass bar) or scrap boxes (1/2” fused glass bar). **PLEASE DO NOT BRING UNFUSED SINGLE SHEETS OF GLASS OR FUSED GLASS THAT IS ONLY 2 LAYERS THICK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This class is considered both an “equipment training” class and an “equipment access” opportunity. Beginners will learn how to safely use the tile saw, discuss basic set up and clean up as well as what material is appropriate for its use.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring a magic marker for measuring and Vaseline to cover the lines before cutting.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;This equipment training does not count toward the one-workshop-per-month.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For further assistance or questions, please contact the instructors:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You will learn to cut intricate patterns in glass for your art projects. We will discuss the difference between our various blades; regular, slim, diachroic, mega, and speed blades, as well as when and how to use them.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;(They may not all be in operation at the time of your training, but we will discuss and answer questions about the various ones.)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This training will also include step-by-step instruction on how to clean the machines after you have used them.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You may bring a project to practice your cutting. We will provide scrap glass and patterns for you to practice on.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;This equipment training does not count toward the one-workshop-per-month.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For further assistance or questions, please contact the instructor(s).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Instructor: Kathy Garceau @ (575)418-8022.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>FR Volunteers to Sort SWAG Order First Fri @ 11:00 -2:00 pm (08/07/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;This is the Volunteer Signup to sort SWAG orders for this month - First Friday of the month.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;This is only being sent to the group of people who have expressed interest in assisting.&amp;nbsp; We are limiting signups to avoid having too many people resulting in a backup in the process.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The start time is fluid, we get a text from SWAG when they are about 20-30 minutes away.&amp;nbsp; Expect that time to be somewhere between 11 and 2.&amp;nbsp; We aim to be completed with the sorting of the order by 3pm when the studio closes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks in advance for your help.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>RA Tile Saw Cutting and Training 08/08 @ 9:00 - 10:30 am (08/08/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;WORKSHOP LEVELS&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F"&gt;Beginners:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; First time users! Learn how to safely cut thicker pieces of glass art such as “Pattern Bars” and “Scrap Boxes” (If you don’t know what these are, please ask a fellow member to let you take a look). Once you have created a pattern bar, scrap box, or other FUSED project that is thicker than 6mm (&amp;gt; 2 layers of glass), sign up for this training and BRING YOUR PROJECT with you to the training. No samples will be available.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F"&gt;ntermediate/Advanced:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; If you have attended this training before and you have created more items that need cutting, please feel free to sign up for a time slot.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Workshop location: Ramada&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Time Slot scheduling: Please schedule yourself in one of the 15-minute sessions.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Learn to cut pattern bars (7 layers thick, fused glass bar) or scrap boxes (1/2” fused glass bar). **PLEASE DO NOT BRING UNFUSED SINGLE SHEETS OF GLASS OR FUSED GLASS THAT IS ONLY 2 LAYERS THICK.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This class is considered both an “equipment training” class and an “equipment access” opportunity. Beginners will learn how to safely use the tile saw, discuss basic set up and clean up as well as what material is appropriate for its use.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring a magic marker for measuring and Vaseline to cover the lines before cutting.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;This equipment training does not count toward the one-workshop-per-month.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For further assistance or questions, please contact the instructors:&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>CR Lap Grinder Training 08/17 @ 9:30 - 11:00 am (08/17/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;INTERMEDIATE LEVEL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Does your fired project have a wonky edge? Does your bowl wobble? Our lap grinder can help you. It uses ever finer grits to make your project smoother and more finished. In this training workshop, you will learn safety tips; how to set up the lap grinder; how to change wheels and clean them; and how to clean up the grinder at the end.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please bring 1-3 fired projects to work on.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The lap grinder can be messy, especially the first time. Wear old clothes or an apron; and old closed toe shoes. I recommend you remove your rings, bracelets or watches; and tie back long hair.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#9E0B0F"&gt;&lt;em&gt;This equipment training does not count toward the one-workshop-per-month.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#ED1C24"&gt;Beginner Level:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; This workshop is for those members who entered the Glass Club through Intro to Fusing or Intro to Stained Glass.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.gvrglassartists.com/resources/Pictures/Workshop-Proposal-Photos/Workshop%20Proposal%20Mosaic%20101%20Photo%2012-8,12-25%20pdf.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="468" height="351"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this workshop you will learn the basic techniques for cutting mosaic glass pieces or tesserae and assembling your first mosaic project.

      <title>FR Volunteers to Sort SWAG Order First Fri @ 11:00 -2:00 pm (11/06/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;This is the Volunteer Signup to sort SWAG orders for this month - First Friday of the month.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;This is only being sent to the group of people who have expressed interest in assisting.&amp;nbsp; We are limiting signups to avoid having too many people resulting in a backup in the process.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The start time is fluid, we get a text from SWAG when they are about 20-30 minutes away.&amp;nbsp; Expect that time to be somewhere between 11 and 2.&amp;nbsp; We aim to be completed with the sorting of the order by 3pm when the studio closes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks in advance for your help.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>FR Volunteers to Sort SWAG Order First Fri @ 11:00 -2:00 pm (12/04/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;This is the Volunteer Signup to sort SWAG orders for this month - First Friday of the month.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;This is only being sent to the group of people who have expressed interest in assisting.&amp;nbsp; We are limiting signups to avoid having too many people resulting in a backup in the process.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The start time is fluid, we get a text from SWAG when they are about 20-30 minutes away.&amp;nbsp; Expect that time to be somewhere between 11 and 2.&amp;nbsp; We aim to be completed with the sorting of the order by 3pm when the studio closes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks in advance for your help.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
