”Such a great learning and fun experience. Super happy with my Leadlight which will sit proud in a window at home. The teachers very helpful and venue a classic old building full of character, and an easy drive from Melbourne. Small class size so we all got the attention we needed to complete our project. Highly recommend.”

”Thoroughly enjoyed this class, the teacher was fabulous with a quick run down of each component at the start and then plenty of time to practice by yourself whilst she floated through the class providing individualised feedback. Highly recommend”

"My sister and I had a fantastic time learning how to make a lead light window. Our teachers were fabulous and generous with their time. The materials were great and the venue was perfect with plunder of space for each student. Would love to do it again!”
