looking for a local stained glass studio

Urban Glass (by BAM) is great!

It looks like they have a stained glass class that starts this week:

Introduction to Stained Glass
Sat · 12:00 - 3:00 · Laura Carbone · Begins Sep 23
10 sessions · $550
In this introductory class, students learn fundamentals of making a stained glass window. Design, glass cutting, and assembly methods are covered as students develop and create their own stained glass panels. Individual attention allows students to work at their own pace and explore different techniques. Students with prior experience who need guidance in tackling a more advanced project are welcome. No experience necessary; advanced students benefit as well.
