The South Street Gallery is an integral part of the vibrant and thriving Wilmington Ohio Fine Arts Community. There you will find a wide assortment of fine art and unique gifts made by skilled stained glass artisans and talented local craftspeople. Owners, John and jody Schum welcome you to come and browse the artwork. The primary space where 'magic happens' is in the classroom where students and visitors are introduced to the art of stained glass.
Expert Craftsmanship
We can and will design and create for you beautiful stained glass pieces for your church, home or office. Often, when you stop in for a visit, you will see examples of different work being constructed at various stages of completion.
Whether your new acquisition includes Stained Glass, Fused Glass creations, delicately assembled Mosaic Panels, or Magnificent Beveled Crystal Masterpieces, you will be astounded by the quality of design, the meticulous care in the selection of color and textured glass components, and the precision of our expert crafts-persons in the fabrication and assembly of your new Stained Glass work of art using either the Copper Foil or Leaded Glass method of construction.

Special Occasion Workshops
If you've worked with this medium before, our 4 hour workshops can help you hone your skills . If you've never worked with stained glass, our experienced teachers can help guide your hand as you shape and assemble your project. Our workshops were designed to be small, 6 person events.

Repair and Restoration Services
We love restoration projects! Do you have an old piece – a lampshade, suncatcher, or even the whole window – that needs a little tender loving care to return to its former glory? We know just what to do. It doesn’t matter if they are heirloom masterpieces, or something you got next door at a garage sale. If you have a piece in need of repair, bring it in to us and we will do everything in our power to bring it back to its former glory.
