About the Instructor:
Mary Jo taught Art to junior high students for seven years on Mercer Island. This experience led to a love of teaching many other subjects, primarily team-building and leadership development in a corporate environment. After retiring, she took a number of glass fusing classes and went on to create her own fused glass art at a Seattle glass studio for years. Then after purchasing her own kiln, Mary Jo continued her love of creating fused glass art in her home studio. She loves the opportunity to enable others to play with cutting glass and making their own glass art.
