More advanced beginner and intermediate students will choose more complex patterns or design their own project. All materials and tools are provided. No experience required and every student will get individual attention. Come make something beautiful!

INSTRUCTOR: Mike Walter has been an artisan working with glass and wood for over 20 years. The joy of the project is his motto. He has studied in glass at Diablo School of Glass and wood at The North Bennet School and Penland School of Craft. His love of tinkering and learning new skills leads him in many directions; electrical, metal, tile, plastics. You never know what might add flair to a project. He loves to mentor and teach people of all ages. He thinks everyone should be able to work with their hands and make something they are proud of and hang on their wall or window. Or better yet, leave as legacy piece to their kids or grandkids to be handed down for generations.
