Glass: Fusing with Float Glass

You will be working on set tasks guided by your expert glass tutor, Anna Chrysopoulo. Teaching takes place in a practical workshop setting, including both demonstration and discussion. Informal assessment will take place on a continual basis throughout the course using observation, and also a group Learner presentation at the end of the course outlining your results and experience of fused glass. To ensure that you make the best possible progress on your course, you will have regular feedback from your tutor, in a constructive and supportive environment.

The fee includes tuition, specialist materials, alongside use of specialist equipment, including glass kiln firings etc. However, Learners will be expected to purchase some of their own Kiln-formed glass materials such as alternative glass types (guidance will be given by the tutor on the first session). You may need to purchase your own small tools, and possibly some additional materials as advised by your tutor.

It would be helpful to bring a sketchbook/notebook, pencils/pen/marker pen etc. You will need to wear sturdy shoes, boots or trainers (no open sandals); an apron. We have basic tools in the workshop which have been adapted to facilitate a safe learning environment. Glass and other materials are available for sale to students, however, Learners may want to buy or bring in their own resources, to have a wider variety in choice of materials.

With these transferable skills, to further develop your creative potential and expand your learning within 3D studies: we encourage progression onto intermediate courses within our glass provision at Morley: these may include the UAL Level 2 in Glass (dependent on ability), as well as other courses in Art & Design the college provides. Please speak with your tutor for further advice or information.
