Come spend a weekend making some festive autumnal neon! With the help of your instructors, choose from 3 different shapes to bend your own seasonal sign. Split evenly between demonstration and hands on bending practice, this weekend workshop will run through the basics of neon sign bending techniques.
What to Expect: Students will walk away with 1 unit of neon to hang up at home and a new skill. Neon is a challenging artform, so expect some failures along with successes as you learn.
Eligibility: No experience required. Open to ages 14 and up.
Pick-up: Neon tubes will be bombarded during class, so students should leave with finished units of neon. Should processing take additional time, students will have to return to UrbanGlass once notified to pick up their work.
This is an in-person class taking place on-site at UrbanGlass. Health and safety guidelines will be emailed to you upon registration.
