PMAC — The Priest’s Mill Arts Centre is offering a free stained glass workshop for youth ages 16-21 on Saturday 20 September.
Across cultures and time, feathers carry powerful symbolic meaning, sometimes mythical, sometimes mystical and often they’re enigmatic reminders of birds and their melodious calls connecting us to nature.
What do feathers mean to you?
Youth are invited to join this stained-glass workshop and craft their own feather-shaped suncatcher — create their meaning — tell their story.
What will you make?
A fiery red phoenix feather? A scorched feather reminding you of Icarus’ audacity? A shimmering angel’s feather? Or a magnificently colourful bird-of-paradise?
An octillion combinations
There are five patterns to choose from: each with seven or more pieces of glass and more than 280 glass colours and textures to choose from. That’s more than 108 octillion combinations — allowing imaginations to run wild — the possibilities are nearly endless.
Experience
No prior experience required. Instructors will take you through the process of pattern selection, glass choice, safely cutting and grinding your pieces, foiling, soldering and applying patina to finish your work. And we’ll celebrate your handiwork with you.
Seats are limited — first-come-first served — book now.
