About Us
The Center of Glass and Light was founded in 2007 as a secular not-for-profit organization to preserve Trinity's artistic stained-glass windows and strengthen the Buffalo community for the future. These goals continue to guide the Center's fundraising and programming today.
Located at Trinity Episcopal Church, the Center's purpose is to bring people together to learn new skills, discover new directions, and forge new relationships through studying and appreciating Trinity's stained-glass windows. The Center of Glass and Light creates opportunities to enjoy these historical windows.
