<h2>Speaking of Art...</h2>
<p>The centerpiece art in the souvenir program book (shown below) was incorrectly credited in the book. The name of the piece is "Beacon Home" and it was created by Camille Meehan. We apologize for the error and would like to thank the artist for bringing it to our attention. On the plus side, we get to see it again here!</p>
