Who teaches marble classes?
Recently, I've gotten obsessed with making marbles, after several years on the bead making side. I have a good sense of who teaches bead classes, and where, but does anyone know who does classes on marble techniques?
Thanks!

The Mazet brothers - Eli & Josh teach amazing marble classes at Glasscraft & Bead Expo in Las Vegas every year. This year, classes are from April 8th to the 12th.
I highly recommend them. cheers,
Lisa

Watching this thread...
I'm considering heading to Arkansas Craft School in May to take a Marble / Pendant class with Beau Anderson. I'd prefer to have just a Marble class, but it never hurts to learn more stuff. A lot of the same techniques are interchangeable between them, too.

I'd love to see a comprehensive list of who is teaching where and when. If someone has one or knows of one, please let us know.

Hi Brian, Hope you are counting on coming,We will have the freedom to focus on marbles and not pendants, the reason for the doubling up is because some of the same skills apply.

I took his marbles class. I'd never done a marble or used boro before, but had a great day. I'm not sure if he has any classes coming up or not, but if he does I would strongly recommend it!

I SO wish I could come to the class in Arkansas, but May is nuts around here. Will there be one in the future?
