Mainframe Studios has lost power. They have requested everyone stay away until things are resolved. We will need to restart everything after the power is restored. So we are currently closed till we know more. Fingers crossed it's not too long.

Class times are finally starting to open up after the Christmas rush. If you are wanting to make a Mother's Day gift or glass art for your garden now is a good time to schedule. We also have gift cards available for her to treat herself to a class.
