Learn about Troy’s Tiffany treasures

To the Editor:

At the Thursday, April 19, meeting of the Guilderland Historical Society, Michael Barrett will present a PowerPoint program on Troy’s Tiffany treasures, describing the artistic creations in glass produced by Louis Comfort Tiffany and his studio.

Barrett is the executive director of the Hudson-Mohawk Gateway, an organization dedicated to recording and preserving the industrial history of this area. Troy, once a wealthy industrial city, is reputed to have more Tiffany glass than any other city in America.

The public is invited to attend this free program at 7:30 p.m. at the Mynderse-Frederick House at 451 Route 146 in Guilderland Center and to join us for the social hour and refreshments following. For information, call 518-861-8582.
