Stained glass, psanky classes at Hockaday

| January 23, 2013 7:30 PM

Artist Kathy Martin offers two classes for adults this winter at the Hockaday Museum of Art.

Stained glass for beginners will be offered Feb. 16 and 24, from 1 to 4 p.m.

Learn the basics of stained glass or refresh your rusty skills in this two-session class. Students will receive step-by-step instructions on glass cutting, pattern preparation, foiling and soldering to complete a suncatcher or small-panel project.

Classes are limited to five participants so students may receive individualized instruction.

Cost is $55 for museum members, $60 for nonmembers. Tool use and materials for beginning and intermediate skill level projects are included in the fee; please indicate your skill level when registering.

 

Martin teaches batik-style egg decorating from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. March 16.

Create beautifully decorated eggs using beeswax and dyes. Step-by-step instruction will include using a kistka wax pen, applying dyes, wax removal and finishing touches on your psanka (Ukrainian Easter egg).

It’s suggested that students bring one to two blown eggs to class. Non-blown eggs will be provided for those who don’t bring their own.

Cost is $25 for museum members, $30 for nonmembers. All materials and tools will be provided for in-class use.

 

The museum is located at 302 Second Ave. E., Kalispell. For more information or to register, visit www.hockadaymuseum.org or call 755-5268.
