This 3 hour tour will focus on the roles of the artisans that made windows for the medieval cathedrals and include a demonstration of historic techniques. Participants will be treated to a rare behind the scenes look at the extraordinary collection of medieval stained glass at Glencairn Museum, the nation’s finest collection in a private museum.
