Instructor: Jaan Andres

In this intermediate level class, students will learn how to pull cane using a traditional teamwork approach. On the first day, students will focus entirely on learning how to pull single-colour straight cane. On the second day, students will use their cane to create vessels, using collar and bubble roll-up methods. Students are welcome to bring their own colour, and will divide up the remaining cane for use in their own practice

Students must have taken at least one class in glassblowing (Weekend Workshop or 6 Week Course). If you are unsure if you have the prerequisite skills for this class, please email us at info@terminalcityglass.com.

Age 16+. Materials and colour included.

(Though students are encouraged to bring their own colours. Students will divide the remaining canes and colour at the end of the class for use in their own practice.)
