We developed our Stained Glass University information to enhance your personal enrichment of the art form, deepen your appreciation for stained glass creations, and promote rewarding results for your next project. 

Working with colorful glass and light stimulates imagination and can improve overall cognitive abilities. As you gain experience, you can explore new possibilities in your designs, mixing and matching techniques for more creative freedom.  The rhythmic, focused, and hands-on nature of stained glass can have a calming and meditative effect.   Completing a stained glass project, whether a small trinket or a large panel, provides a tangible and rewarding sense of accomplishment.  Unlike digital arts, stained glass provides a physical, hands-on experience where you can hold and display your finished creation, which can be deeply satisfying. 

Learning the history and techniques behind stained glass windows in churches, homes, and other buildings gives you a new appreciation for the pieces you see in the world. You'll see the intricate details in a "whole new light". 

We hope these short informative pages help you appreciate the stained glass world and increase  your stained glass passion!
