The Cocoroca workshop offers introductory stained glass courses for beginners.
There are two types of introductory courses:
- Traditional Leaded Stained Glass :
This is the traditional architectural stained glass technique found in churches and historic buildings.
The course is divided into several 3-hour sessions. In most cases, four sessions are required to complete a first panel composed of around twenty glass pieces. This initial project follows a workshop-designed pattern, allowing participants to learn the fundamental techniques and develop the correct gestures.
After completing the introduction, participants are free to create their own leaded stained glass projects during the weekly workshop sessions.
- Tiffany Stained Glass :
The Tiffany technique is commonly used for decorative objects and allows for three-dimensional creations.
The introductory course consists of two 3-hour sessions (which may be completed on the same Saturday), during which participants create a small stained glass object composed of four to five glass pieces.
After completing the introduction, participants are free to develop their own Tiffany projects during the weekly workshop sessions.
There is no obligation to take the introductory sessions consecutively. However, it is recommended not to leave too much time between sessions when starting out, as regular practice will help you progress more quickly.
