St. Ann will offer a tour of our historic stained glass church windows and our beautiful marble life-sized replica of Michelangelo’s Pietà on Saturday, December 7 as part of this year's Tenleytown WinterFest. The Wisconsin Avenue doors will open at 9:00am, and coffee and donuts will be available. Tours will be at 9:30 and 11:00am. Church will be open with self-guided tours available from 9:00am to 12:00pm. No reservations are needed and all are welcome.
The tours, conducted by St. Ann's parishioner Sal Selvaggio, will include how and when the windows were created, and what they tell us about the saints and their iconography. Come and discover more about our beautiful replica of Michelangelo's Pietà. This marble masterpiece, just one of 100 authorized replicas worldwide, was created from a precise mold of the original at the Vatican. Please join us to celebrate WinterFest, meet your neighbors and leave with a better understanding of your neighborhood church!
