About the event
Registration: Participants attend all three sessions, as each builds upon the previous ones.
Led by experienced preservation professionals from Restoration West, this immersive workshop takes place on-site at the historic Fifth Ward Meetinghouse, a 1910 red-brick structure with deep roots in the community. As you work on real windows from this iconic building, you’ll gain skills that apply to any historic home, and contribute directly to the revival of a space with plans to serve the community once again.
Bring Your Own PPE: To keep costs low, attendees are required to bring their own safety gear, including a P100 respirator, safety glasses, and work gloves.
