  • Artist comment: (Amy Tessaro) loves teaching stained glass classes and learning new ideas from her students. Her most favorite student that she has taught would be her son, Antonio Tessaro. Antonio received his first set of stained glass tools from Amy’s late father. Tony’s first year participating at the Adaka Festival; he was thirteen and taught his first class, a mosaic stained glass class. The following year in 2015 he taught his first beginner stained glass class. There is nothing more rewarding than to share our talents with our future generations.
