Associates and Fellows of
the British Society of Master Glass Painters

Associates and Fellows are the senior professional members of the Society. They have been elected by their professional peers and judged for their design ability and competence in the making or supervision of the making of a work in stained glass. Craft Associates are members judged to be expert in the technical aspects of stained glass execution. Our Fellows are those artists of eminence and prominence, most highly respected by the stained glass community. All are judged to have attained maturity in their craft and to have achieved a significant body of work. The Society's Articles of Association (revised 1994) defined the categories of membership as follows:

• Associates (AMGP): Members of not less than 25 years of age, carrying on the craft of stained glass on good standing and able to demonstrate competence in designing and making or in designing and supervising making in the craft.
  
  
• Craft Associates (CAMGP): Members of not less than 25 years of age working in the craft in good standing and able to demonstration competence in glass execution.
  
  
• Fellows (FMGP): Members of at least 35 years of age, who have practised the craft for at least 10 years. They are those who in the opinion of the BSMGP Fellowship, have attained eminence and maturity and competence to advise and judge fellow practitioners in the craft.
