Paths Through The Patch
There is more than one path through The Patch.
You may be looking for a few hours to slow down and make something with your hands. You may want to master the craft of stained glass. You may be ready to strengthen a particular skill — or you may simply need a place where you can keep creating on your own terms.
Wherever you are, there’s a path through the Patch that can meet you there.
Creative Experiences
Come make something.
A calm, welcoming introduction to stained glass centered on the experience of being in the studio — slowing down, exploring the materials, and enjoying the process of creating with your hands.
You’ll be guided step by step through your project, but the heart of this path is the time, the space, and the experience itself.
No prior skills needed — just curiosity and a willingness to try something new.
Learn the Art
Learn the craft with confidence.
Structured, supportive instruction throughout the full stained-glass process.
This path breaks the craft into clear, manageable steps so you can build confidence as you work. You’ll learn how to cut, shape, foil, solder, and finish stained glass while also understanding why each step matters.
As your skills grow, you’ll begin making your own creative and technical decisions, preparing you to take on larger projects and work more independently.
Build Your Skills
Strengthen what you already know.
For returning makers ready to grow, this path focuses on strengthening technique and building confidence with specific skills and tools.
Whether you want to improve your soldering, refine your shaping, learn a new cutting system, explore the ring saw, or strengthen another part of your process, these focused sessions give you room to practice with guidance beside you.
Continue Creating
Create your own path.
A supportive studio environment for makers who are ready to chart their own path.
Bring your own project, work at your own pace, and make use of the studio tools, workspace, materials, and resources that help keep your ideas moving forward. Depending on what you need, you can work independently, schedule focused project support, or simply give yourself the time and space to create.
