 Tiffany Glass:  Painting with Color and Light 

Reynolda House, Winston-Salem

 

  In the later part of 2019, I found out about a new exhibit that Reynolda was going to have on display in the Spring 2020 - Tiffany Glass:  Painting with Color and Light organized by the Neustadt Collection of Tiffany Glass in Queens, NY. 

  Unfortunately, due to current events, the exhibition was postponed until later in the year.  Finally, the house posted the new dates October 6, 2020 - November 29, 2020.  So today I and two others went to see this display of art. 

  One house pass or ticket will get you admittance to the current exhibit as well as the house museum. 


Lovely walkway to the house from the parking lot
