Fantastic to see the @BSMGP ‘inspired by William Morris’ exhibition at the International Festival of Glass / British Glass Biennale last night. Huge congratulations to @RMStainedGlass for her stained glass award sponsored by @WorshipGlaziers !
Do you know what a cartoon is? A #StainedGlass cartoon might not be what you think!
Check out our latest video from the @stainedglassmus exploring some of the fantastic, and rarely seen, cartoons in our collection
Making a design is the artists first step in creating a #StainedGlass window.
Check this video and learn more about the process of making a design. You’ll also have a chance to see some rarely seen examples from our collection here at The @stainedglassmus

Wise words from the inspiring Emma Stenning CEO of city of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra at @Aimuseums - “innovation is not an anathema to excellence”. Absolutely inspiring to hear that they co-run an Academy Trust school which puts music & creative arts at centre of education
This was a special moment and a delight and privilege to see (probably for the first time the glass was made) Geddes’ cartoons and the completed window by Blakeman side by side. Read more here
Cartoons for stained glass windows don’t always survive, so imagine our excitement then when we were able to lay Wilhelmina Geddes’ original cartoons for her last stained glass commission next to the finished pieces!
