I Saw the Sign: Reverse Gilding and Sign Painting on Glass
About
A two-day introduction with Morgan Peterson to traditional and contemporary sign painting on glass and to water gilding with gold leaf, including special-effect materials; each student completes one small piece. It meets 10am–4pm on Saturday and Sunday, December 5 and 6, at Pilchuck Glass School's Seattle studio, 240 2nd Ave S, Suite 100, a short walk from Pioneer Square Station. Tuition is $600 for both days. Pilchuck's final fall stained glass class follows on December 12.

New to glass?
Glass classes split into fused glass (cutting and layering sheet glass that is melted in a kiln), stained glass (cut pieces joined with copper foil and solder) and hot glass (blowing or flameworking at a furnace or torch).
- Closed-toe shoes and natural-fibre clothing for hot-glass sessions; studios provide eye protection.
- Fused and stained glass suit a first visit. Glassblowing tasters are short and guided closely.
- Hot-glass classes are small and sell out first, especially before holidays.
Taking it home: Rarely on the day. Fused pieces go back in the kiln and blown glass cools overnight, so expect to collect it later or have it shipped.
