Description:
A history of Quaker architecture and the Orange Grove Friends Meetinghouse in Pasadena, CA.
A history of Quaker architecture and the Orange Grove Friends Meetinghouse in Pasadena, CA.
In 1966, the small Quaker meeting in Santa Fe, New Mexico, was bequeathed its current home, the historic house and garden of the painter Olive Rush. It is already an unlikely occurrence for a Quaker meeting to have a patron, and even more so, for the benefactor to be an artist, given Friends’ long history of disparaging the arts as frivolous and vain.
