About this event
The purpose of most windows is to allow a view of the outside and admit light into a building. The purpose of stained glass windows, however, is not to allow people to see outside, but to beautify buildings, control light, and sometimes to tell a story. Stained glass was believed to have first been created by ancient Egyptians and/or the Romans. During the Medieval period, stained glass window making flourished, reaching its peak during the Gothic period, in which stained glass windows were used in cathedrals; to a lesser degree, stained glass continued to be made throughout history ad and continues to be made today.Students will use various art mediums to create stained glass projects throughout the semester.
