Workshop Registration
Cat Burns
"All the Freakin' Colors"
June 17 - 21 (5-day workshop)
From fresh color pot melt to murrini, this class covers every colorful step in making and playing with your own bodacious patterns. Learn how to overlay whole color bars, stuff cups, pull murrini, roll-up, fuse, re-use, and recycle all that expensive scrap. Come with problems, questions, or just a need to chase the rainbow. In this class, we promise to melt color and minds.
This class meets from 9am to 5pm each day, Monday through Friday, with additional studio time Monday through Thursday, from 5pm to 9pm. Materials for participating in the course are included. If you have specific colors you are interested in working with please bring them with you.
Cat Burns is probably best known for being in two seasons of the Netflix series "Blown Away", but at home, she must make her craft pay for her art. She has been a full-time production glassmaker for 11 years and her design studio currently sells out of online drops in minutes thanks to her quarter million followers on Tiktok. That work helps fund her use of glass as a therapeutic practice where the meditation of making allows her to work through personal obstacles such as her degrading eyesight. Her art currently focuses on making glass pieces accessible to those without vision by exploring the tactile side of color through the ancient technique of murrini turned braille in which viewers are invited to "Please Touch the Glass".
