Support a unique place! The school needs you!
The school of stained glass and creation is a unique place, dedicated to glass and artistic education.
Stained glass is an evocative word. It refers to notions of light and color, to great human works. Stained glass touches the marvelous and the beautiful. It can also be humble, at the service of places and people, decorative, geometric.
It is a question of understanding the implementation of stained glass. Educating the hand in meticulous gestures, making it sensitive to tools and materials, respectful.
It is a matter of learning to observe the effects of colored glass in light and space. Then, we paint with the glass.
It is a privilege to be a school and to give access to this knowledge. It is also a responsibility, when one realizes the power of light passing through colored glass.
There are few doors to this apprenticeship dedicated exclusively to stained glass and flat glass decoration. Our school is one of them, unique in Switzerland.
The Swiss School of Stained Glass and Design is happy to welcome you for any length of time, from a simple visit to a complete training course, including discovery courses.
