Wondering how to get started on repairing your historic windows? We've added a window workshop on Saturday, October 24th from 1pm-4pm at our workshop inside our Significant Elements store, 212 Center Street. Spaces are limited and pre-registration is required. The workshop fee is $35. This interactive workshop is taught by experienced preservationist and window repair expert Alphonse Pieper and will provide an introduction into the care, repair and weatherization of older and historic windows. Learn about double-hung windows, its parts, removal process, re-glazing, and several other ways to tighten-up your windows through some hands-on activities. No experience required, bring your curiosity, problem solving skills, and your own window questions.
