Saskatchewan stained glass holds many surprises. As well as in cathedrals, churches, convents and chapels, we found interesting windows in armouries, legion halls, a casino, restaurants, colleges, performance halls and museums. Many more Saskatchewan towns and buildings remain to be documented.
Please tell us more about your building and its windows: glasscanada@gmail.com
