In
January of 2006, Plachte-Zuieback Art Glass was commissioned
to design and create an
original art glass installation for the Shiffman
Chapel at Adat Shalom Synagogue, in Farmington Hills,
Michigan. The following project journal follows the progress
of the fabrication of the windows, in our studio, in Santa
Rosa, California.
