"Cane on the Brain" with Austin Stern

In this course, students will explore traditional and non traditional cane techniques. Starting with the process of pulling filigrana cane, students will expand into pulling complex cane types and explore a variety of possible applications for that cane. Students will be given one on one guidance for specific questions, and projects will guide the glass through technical and design challenges. Students are encouraged to bring a sketchbook and come to class prepared to work together and share ideas.
