This workshop is for new members only. (You are considered a “new member for 6 months after joining the club.)

You may have seen or heard about a popular project called a “shatter plate”. This is your chance to learn how to make one!

We will be designing a 6”x6” plate using a hammer - yes, a hammer! This technique creates a unique design and gives you a chance to design with embellishments. The instructor will have embellishment materials (dots, stringers, scrap glass, etc.) available for you to use. There will be two firing fees. Please bring $3.00 to cover this cost.
