Young Students Draw Pictures of Chapel Reopening

Students from the Carolina Friends Durham Early School came to the Chapel's reopening celebration on May 11, 2016. Their teacher said they marveled at the architectural beauty of the Chapel and the dramatic sound of the organs and carillon. The children were inspired by an invitation to document the historic moment in the life of what they call the "Quiet Castle." See some of their drawings below:
