The Union Project is an interesting collaborative effortin Pittsburgh to restore the Union Baptist Church. Their goal is "to provide gathering and working space for artists, community builders and people of faith." They also run an innovative stained glass teaching workshop, which they are using to not only teach people the craft of stained glass, but also to have the community participate in the rebuilding of the windows and the church itself. There are over a hundred stained glass windows in the church, so it's no small project. To find out more, visit their website where you can rent space, donate money to the project or participate in one of their programs.
