Think Spring. In this introductory workshop, you’ll use cold shop etching tools to engrave your own glass plate and create a unique spring design. Get inspired by the season, think flowers, leaves, butterflies, or anything that captures the freshness of the season. Once your plate is complete, you’ll bring your artwork to life with ink, transferring your design onto paper.

At the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with both your engraved glass plate and your printed work, ready to display, gift, or admire.
