Laser Craft: Create Custom Art, Prints + Decor
Adult Multi-Week | This class has been canceled
For this class, we will utilize the fabrication lab's laser cutter/etcher to create various art objects out of paper, acrylic and wood. Final products can range from intricate paper cutouts and light up acrylic etchings, to cutting out wood parts to make your own lamp shades and 3D structures. Students will leave with a working knowledge of the laser machine, as well as a comfort for various layout and design software that are used along the way, such as Adobe Illustrator.
- Classes are confirmed one week prior to the start date. In order to help us confirm classes, please register as early as possible.
On-site courses do not come with studio access outside of class time. Paid open studio access is available through our Studio Access Program. Please visit visarts.org for more information.
This instructor speaks Spanish, but class is held in English.
