Learn the essential techniques of cutting, layering, and fusing glass to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind pieces. Guided by Una Galbraith, you’ll explore the properties of glass, experiment with colour and texture, learn how to cut glass, and design your own small projects, such as jewellery, drink stirrers, bookmarks, hanging decorations, tiles, or magnets. You might even like to create your own inclusions for mosaic projects if you already create mosaic art. We’ll be in touch with you before the day to see if you have ideas for what you might like to create or if you’d prefer to do one of the projects Una suggests.

With all materials and tools provided, this workshop offers a relaxed and creative environment to ignite your artistic side. Perfect for anyone curious about glass art, this introduction promises a fun and inspiring experience! It’s a relaxed atmosphere where, not only will you develop your glass fusing skills, but you’ll also have an enjoyable day out.

This workshop is suitable for complete beginners but more experienced fusers are welcome too.

Your pieces will need to be fired in the kiln and you can collect them a few days later, or we can post them out to you.

This is also a great workshop for team building and private parties – if you’d like to book for a private event, contact Rhona at rhonaduffy@mosaicandglass.com

Important notes:

Course includes tuition, use of tools, materials, and tea/coffee/snacks.
Please bring your own lunch and utensils – or you can buy lunch at a nearby shop/snack bar.
All our workshops are suitable for over age 16s.

She’s a regular exhibitor at Artisan& in Aberfeldy and was one of seven artists represented by Artisan& at Edinburgh Art Fair 2024.

About Mosaic & Glass masterclasses and workshops
Nestled in Falkirk in the heart of Scotland, this new space will open in early 2025. It will offer the perfect setting for mosaic and glass enthusiasts to immerse themselves in hands-on learning in a welcoming and well-equipped environment. Designed for comfort and creativity, the space will be thoughtfully arranged to accommodate both mosaic and glass creators, making it an ideal venue for both beginners and seasoned makers to learn from visiting tutors from across the world. The venue is located in Central Falkirk, with free on-street parking nearby. It’s a five-minute walk from Grahamston Station, which is 30 minutes from Edinburgh and Glasgow by train. It has train routes heading to the north of Scotland too. With plenty of accommodation options and eateries nearby, students can easily settle in for multi-day workshops, and its central location makes it a convenient gateway for exploring Scotland’s rich cultural and scenic attractions, turning every visit into both an educational and inspirational journey. Look out for pictures of the new space coming in early 2025. Plus keep an eye on our social media for progress updates!
