⚡ I’m thrilled to announce my first-ever workshop at Salem Community College this summer — and registration is still open!
🔮 Lightning in ANY Bottle
📅 June 23–27, 2025
📍 Salem Community College, NJ
We’ve got 2 folks signed up so far, with 6 spots left — perfect for anyone curious about plasma in glass or looking to push their creative boundaries.
In this hands-on class, we’ll dive into using Ruesche enamel flux as a glass solder to create sealed plasma vessels. Think cups, bowls, cast forms, or even components for blown sculptures—just like in my Atupa series, which I started during my residency at the Corning Museum of Glass
Whether you're a glassblower, neon artist, kiln caster, or completely new to the material, this workshop is designed to be flexible, and approachable.
