<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">Beginners will be guided step by step through the process of creating a simple leaded stained-glass panel. Those with some experience can further develop their skills, try new techniques, and work on their own projects. Expect a week of fun and intensive study. </span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">Yes</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">No.</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">Learners can enrol on Wednesday afternoon courses to build their skills and explore new techniques, or join a Saturday workshop to learn the copper foil (Tiffany-style) method.</span></span></p>

Material costs vary by project scale, but an A3 sized panel typically costs around £55. Fee includes classroom sundries (e.g. paper, masking tape, tracing paper, glass cleaner, kiln shelf paper, two strips of solder, fluxes, white spirit, patinas, glass paints, etc).</span></span></p>
