In November 6-15, 2023, the Sculpture and Stained Glass Center organizes a cycle of creative workshops for the residents of Naujininkai, Kirtimai, Saliininkai and other peripheral districts of the city of Vilnius who want to develop their creativity. This time, the workshops focus on the use of clay as a material with diverse creative possibilities, as well as familiarization with glass and the creation of communal stained glass. We invite you to register for workshops led by professionals in their field, artists - sculptors and stained glass artists:

​

Edita Utarienė is a stained glass artist. Since the beginning of her creative work, she has created more than 40 large-scale stained glass windows in public spaces and private interiors, more than 90 chamber stained glass windows and participates in many group exhibitions, symposiums in Lithuania and abroad. During the series of creative workshops, Edita Utarienė will conduct community creation, familiarization with glass and artistic stained glass workshops. Using ready-made glasses of various configurations, the participants will decorate them with iron oxide and place them in a stained glass composition. This solidified and fired in the oven will become a joint work of the participants, which will be exhibited in the Sculpture and Stained Glass Center Art Festival 2024.
