Hey everybody,

I'm teaching an intense 5 day advanced marble making class this summer at the Pittsburgh Glass Center, July 18 - 22, 2011 ... I'm really excited for a nice long class like this, we can cover A LOT of ground =)

Hope to see some folks from the pot there....

Thanks for hosting Pittsburgh Glass!

hey hey...

I just wanted to bump this thread to remind folks of the April 15th early registration deadline for my class. It'll save you a little money to sign up early... and it's already a very fair deal for 5 days of instruction and studio time. The studio is open late too and I've been known to work very long days =)

Damn if only I was a little closer to Pittsburgh. Looks to be a great class.

Mike, where you based out of........

[melter skelter]

I live in Portland, Oregon... I grew up in upstate N.Y. This will be the first time on the east coast for me in 5 years. Hopefully I'll get to see some family and old friends while I'm there.

I got an email from Sam at PGC this morning, there are still a few spots left for my class =)

[melter skelter]

These are a few from last month... I can also cover some of my older techniques here (http://www.glassartists.org/MikeGong) ... 6 ways and triangles if anybody's down....

If you're interested in taking a class with me, this Pittsburgh class is a great opportunity even for the west coasters... it's 5 days! Let's boogie =)
