Stained Glass Classes

While studying at King's College, Aberdeen I rekindled my love for stained glass windows. In the King's College Chapel there were some beautiful modern windows by Douglas Strachan, which I would spend hours looking at (this one is part of th war memorial). When I was a young kid my dad took stained glass classes and created our front door window and other various little nicknacks - now I'm getting interested in taking it up on the side. There is a small shop in Tecumseh, MI that teaches classes. It is called Pictures in Glass: http://www.picturesinglass.net/ . I'm thinking about joining.

St. Joseph Mercy Hospital Ann Arbor Chapel

The Chapel at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital Ann Arbor is beautiful and has some pieces from the liturgical artist Michael Kapetan. If SAU ever gets a chapel, we will need to commission this Michigan native. You can see some of his wok on his website: http://www.mikekapetan.com/index.htm
