Window number 9
Another of Saltaire's 'Living Advent Calendar' windows, number 9, is at the Methodist Church. It was designed and painted by members of Saltaire Methodist Art Group, a thriving group that meets on Wednesday mornings in the Methodist Church Hall. You can't really tell from my photo, which was taken at night with the windows lit from within, but the side panels have little squares showing very intricate Celtic patterns.

A beautiful window of the Church Jenny.

Do the contributors change days each year or does the Methodist Church, for example, always do the ninth day?
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I don't think I've come across this before.
