In Level Up: Intermediate Neon, students will have the chance to advance their skill sets in all aspects of the medium. During this multi session course we’ll go even deeper than before into every part of the process from designing, to bending, to more intricate wiring and installation methods - perfect for those with prior neon experience who are looking to go even further with what they can do. We’ll be venturing beyond the slicing and the splicing of the weekend workshop and introductory level lessons to add even more to your neon arsenals.
What to expect: Participants can expect to leave with 6 units. Read more about how to prepare for class on our Registration Info page.
With neon work, participants primarily engage in standing activities such as bending and assembling neon tubes over a torch flame. Working with glass materials requires a certain level of dexterity. Learn more about accessibility on our website.
Eligibility: No previous experience required. Open to ages 14 and up.
Pick-up: Neon tubes may be bombarded during class, however 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.
