We took a free guided tour. Colleen, our dosette, was remarkable. Her knowledge and kindness were beyond compare. We got to walk around the whole academy. My favorite part was the attic. I highly recommend taking a guided tour here.

Amazing venue! Mother Joseph decided in order to get what she wanted in the chapel, she would have to carve the wood herself and walhat a fine and beautiful result. We went to hear a Woody Guthrie educational concert. What a fine culture event!
