[Hou-announce] OT - HCCC Enamel Class

[Hillary Greenslade]

Greetings, 
>From time to time, I'm asked to teach folks about the metalsmith/glass process of enameling (glass on metal).  Sadly, I'm just not setup to do hands-on classes on the subject currently, perhaps in the future.  

However, this summer, a class is being offered at the Houston Center for Contemporary Crafts (in Houston in the museum district) taught by two enamelists.  I'm told the class still has a few openings, so thought I'd pass along the info to this list.  

I've known the teachers for years, both professional enamelists; the class is a great opportunity to learn the beginning of enamels. The price for the class is very reasonable for enamel classes.
