Stained Glass Workshop with Peter McGrain
July 17-20
Cost: $800
register online at: brynathyn.edu/workshops
In this workshop you will learn different glass painting
techniques, from traditional to McGrain’s Vitri-Fusáille® process.
This new technique combines the multi-stage process of
traditional glass painting with modern glass fusing. Instead of
painting and firing each individual piece separately, you will fuse
the colored glass pieces together first, then paint and fire it as
one piece of glass. You will create several individual pieces, as
well as participate in the creation of a large group project. This is
a rare opportunity to take part in a hands-on workshop taught by
a prominent leader in the stained glass community.
Artist/designer Peter McGrain is recognized internationally

the finest example of stained glass created between 1980 and
1989. He currently offers hands-on seminars at select studios,
is a contributing writer for Glass Art and Glass Craftsman
magazines, and authors glass painting books and DVDs.
