Historic Window Preservation Workshop at Salem’s Historic First United Methodist Church

Historic Window Preservation Workshop at Salem’s Historic First United Methodist Church

On Saturday June 29th Salem FUMC, in conjunction with the City of Salem and Oregon State Historic Preservation Office, will be hosting a window preservation workshop.  Workshop participants will learn how to remove a window sash, restring pulleys, repair window glazing, and other simple repairs.  Participants are encouraged to bring basic tools such as putty knives, painter tools, utility knives, etc. Supplies and materials needed for the workshop will either be donated or purchased with grant funds.  The workshop will be led by Chris Gustafson of Vintage Window Restoration in Albany. Chris is a graduate of the Historic Preservation & Restoration program at the Clatsop Community College in Astoria.  This free workshop is being presented by the Salem Historic Landmarks Commission through a Certified Local Government (CLG) grant from the Oregon State Historic Preservation Office. If you are interested in attending for all or part of the workshop, please contact Nancy Brik at Salem FUMC at 503.364.6709 or nancyb@wvi.com.
