Stained Glass Walks and Talks
Through this summer programme of guided visits, members are given the opportunity to explore some of the hidden treasures of stained glass around the country. Local guides, often practising stained glass artists themselves, lead small groups along a fascinating trail of working studios, town and country churches and often less accessible stained glass sites.

Summer Programme 2013
Sat 25 May - Around Northamptonshire with Paul Sharpling
Paul will lead a day looking talking about stained glass in and around Market Harborough. Finer details are still to be fixed but plans are to visit churches in Great Bowden and Rothwell. Works to be seen are by Heaton, Butler & Bayne, Celtic Studios, Louis Davis, Hardman, Limelight Studios (Derek Hunt), Mayer of Munich, A K Nicholson, Powell & Sons, Frances Tucker, and Helen Whitaker. All the venues are within easy reach of each other and parking is no problem.
Hopefully we might go a bit further a field to see medieval glass in Stanford on Avon as well. There's a good rail service for anyone who might not want to come car.
