Windows on Design
About the program
Stained glass has been enhancing buildings around the world for thousands of years. Discover how these windows are designed and then make your own acrylic stained-glass window.
In Chicago, stained glass can be found in historic temples, churches, Gilded Aged mansions, and landmark municipal buildings. Participants will learn how these dazzling-colored windows were designed and then make their own acrylic stained-glass windows. Participants will then take what they learned and make their own acrylic stained-glass window project to take home.
