This class is full.

Darlene Strong has taken us on numerous adventures in the stained glass world from winter mittens to feathers to garden stakes. This time, we are headed “by the sea”. She has a few choices of patterns (fish, sea shells, starfish), so you might want to think ahead of time if you would like to create shells, or fish! You will make 2 or more aquatic creatures, depending on your glass experience and the detail/difficulty of the pattern you select.

For artists aged 14+

Class size is limited to 4 participants.

All supplies are included in the cost of the class.

Please Note:

• You will need hand strength to take this class; successful glass cutting requires 5-10 pounds of pressure by hand.

• You will be standing for long periods of time with this class as well.

• Open toed shoes are NOT allowed in the glass studio.

• If you are pregnant, or think you might be, working with stained glass is not recommended.

• Our glass studio is downstairs so you must be able to navigate stairs.

DYK: that Darlene's glass classes will have you trained up enough to use the glass studio on your own? Ask Darlene about the skill requirement to get to this level!

Registration for this class closes midnight, June 11th.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Apparently, I have been making art messes since I was 3 years old. Although I learned my art mediums mostly by trial and error, I did achieve some formal training: Diploma in Graphic Design, 1 year fashion Design and a Certificate in Interior Decorating. As well, I have attended many Art workshops.

I have tried many, many, forms of art through the years, but I always come back to Acrylic & Watercolor. I have been instructing these mediums for over 25 yrs and Stained Glass for about 15.

It's my passion, to see others become passionate about creating! I own a studio at Rocanville where I offer private Art lessons and Paint Parties and some retail art supplies. When I get a minute or two, I even create my own art. I am thrilled to be a part of MVAC and for the opportunity to share my experience with others.

Tatting is an ancient knotting art dating back over 200 years. It is believed it originated with fishermen and sailors as the tatting shuttle is similar to a tool used to repair fishing nets. It uses a tatting shuttle and crochet cotton . . . the finer the crochet cotton, the more dainty your tatting will be.

In Canada, tatting is not as popular as knitting and crocheting but it is hugely popular in Germany, Italy and Japan. The fine lace created by tatting is different from either knitting or crochet. It can be said that tatting is more ornamental whereas knitting and crocheting are more practical.

Melissa is a retired educator who has enjoyed tatting for over 40 years. She learned to tat when she was 12 by attending a course instructed at the Regional Library, but those lessons were reinforced by her maternal grandmother who was also a tatter. Besides tatting, Melissa enjoys all sorts of arts and crafts as well as gardening and preserving. She is currently working part-time with the Moosomin Visual Arts Centre as an administrative assistant and she helps with the kids’ programming.

This class is limited to 4 participants.

Participants must be 13 years of age or older.

You will require your own tatting shuttle. These can be purchased at Sew Creative & Interiors in Moosomin or they can be ordered online. Crochet cotton will be provided.

A WORD FROM LYNN, ABOUT LYNN:

I began sewing as child and have continued all my life. When I am not sewing something, be it a quilt, garments, or mending, I am thinking about the next project, or 20. I love upcycling and reusing fabrics to give them a new life. Over the years I have taught private lessons, sewn for others, provided mending services and have had a blast coordinating the costume department of Creative Vision Productions.

Darlene Strong is taking us on another adventure in the stained glass world. This time, we are creating garden stakes. She has a few choices of patterns, so you might want to think ahead of time if you would like to create flowers, hearts, birds or bees! You will make 2 - 4 garden stakes, depending on your glass experience and the detail/difficulty of the pattern you select.

For artists aged 14+

Class size is limited to 4 participants.

All supplies are included in the cost of the class.

Please Note:

• You will need hand strength to take this class; successful glass cutting requires 5-10 pounds of pressure by hand.

• You will be standing for long periods of time with this class as well.

• Open toed shoes are NOT allowed in the glass studio.

• If you are pregnant, or think you might be, working with stained glass is not recommended.

• Our glass studio is downstairs so you must be able to navigate stairs.

DYK: that Darlene's glass classes will have you trained up enough to use the glass studio on your own? Ask Darlene about the skill requirement to get to this level!

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Apparently, I have been making art messes since I was 3 years old. Although I learned my art mediums mostly by trial and error, I did achieve some formal training: Diploma in Graphic Design, 1 year fashion Design and a Certificate in Interior Decorating. As well, I have attended many Art workshops.

I have tried many, many, forms of art through the years, but I always come back to Acrylic & Watercolor. I have been instructing these mediums for over 25 yrs and Stained Glass for about 15.

It's my passion, to see others become passionate about creating! I own a studio at Rocanville where I offer private Art lessons and Paint Parties and some retail art supplies. When I get a minute or two, I even create my own art. I am thrilled to be a part of MVAC and for the opportunity to share my experience with others.
