At the two-day workshop, each participant will create their own unique plate from recycled window glass.

Duration: 2 sessions of 2 hours each.

  • Thursday, April 18, from 6 PM to 8 PM
  • Thursday, April 25, from 6 PM to 8 PM

Session 1: We will start with a theoretical introduction to glass shaping using the slumping technique, followed by hands-on practice. Each participant will first choose their mold for bending and cut the glass according to its size and shape. Then, we will learn how to prepare the glass and molds for firing and properly load them into the kiln and ignite it.

Session 2: It's time for cold processing of the glass plates. First, we will unload the plates from the kiln and start grinding the glass. Optionally, each individual can further decorate their plate using techniques such as engraving, etching, or sandblasting.

Does the workshop count as training?

  • YES, by participating in the workshop, you will complete training for cold glass processing (valued at 30 EUR for members/40 EUR for non-members).

The program is intended for adults. The workshop will be led by Nika Šantej, a mentor in the jewelry lab, glass, and ceramics designer.

Participants are to gather 5 minutes before the agreed-upon time in the entrance hall of the Center Rog.

The workshop will be conducted with a minimum of 6 registrations. In case of cancellation, you will be notified no later than two days before the start of the program.

Registration fees for workshops are non-refundable, and it is not possible to change the date. However, participation can be transferred to another person; please inform us at least 24 hours before the start via email at steklokeramika@center-rog.si.
