A Letter from the Director
|
Weber Center is humming with activity! We are delighted to welcome the
Jubilarians and their families, those coming from all over the country and beyond for the
Dominican Retreat, our friends from the
Adrian Center for the Arts, and others who will be spending time at Weber this summer.
We are also happy to announce that Weber's Art Shop is now open. Weber's Book and Gift Shop has expanded to offer original art by our Sisters and others. We have paintings, photographs, ceramics, jewelry, tiles, and leaded glass, among other forms of art. In partnership with the Sylvania Franciscans, we also have soaps and lotions from their "Holy Aroma" collection. Looking for a unique gift? Check us out!
Sincerely,
Sister Janet
