Today I received an email from the Stained Glass Association of America about their stained glass school and the classes they offer. A question from one reader asked about their classes. This was the response from Richard: Raphael — The SGAA Stained Glass School is designed primarily for advanced education for those already actively involved in stained glass; however, you can check with local stained glass retailers and community colleges for introductory stained glass classes in your area. Look in the phone book under Glass: Stained & Leaded and you should be able to find local businesses that offer classes.
I love that the association is offering these advanced classes, has full color reference and technical manuals for stained glass industry, and that they are so devoted to the betterment of our industry.
If you are interested in classes, give me a call or check out my web site, linked below. If you are currently a glass artist looking for advanced training beyond what you can get in your local area, I highly recommend checking these out. Some of my greatest advancements as an artist came when I pushed myself to a level beyond what I thought I could do by attending classes and workshops like those offered here.
By the way, I am at Art-A-Licious in Adrian today. Great art show that just keeps getting better. Stop by and see me!
