Hello! I’m Wyatt Podgorski, founder and owner of Podgorski Glass Studios. My journey with stained glass began unexpectedly at the age of thirteen with a school project. Idea Charter School, with its emphasis on project-based learning, fostered my creativity and allowed me to pursue unconventional interests. One day, drawn to its vibrant colors and intricate patterns, I decided to try my hand at stained glass. A local hobbyist generously shared their knowledge, guiding me through the basics. Though challenging at times, I was captivated by the meticulous process and the timeless beauty of this ancient art form. Over several years, I steadily refined my abilities. With unwavering support from family and friends, I realized my passion for stained glass extended far beyond a simple hobby – it was my calling. I believe in the power of stained glass to inspire and uplift, and my mission is to create high-quality, custom pieces and restorations that bring joy and light into people’s lives.
