This Thursday, September 26, the Queen Anne Historical Society (QAHS) kicks off its new program year with a public meeting at St Anne’s Catholic Church. This season, the QAHS is examining the architecture of churches on Queen Anne, and to do so, the free meetings will be held at the featured churches.

“The History and Architecture of St Anne’s Catholic Church”, includes a visit to the sanctuary, and talks by Parish Coordinator Ron Ryan and architect Stephen Lee. Ryan will review the church’s history and Lee will discuss the architecture of the current church, built in 1963 and renovated in 2008.
A discussion will follow, and coffee and snacks will be served. The meeting begins at 7pm at St Anne’s – the church entrances are at W Lee St on the 2nd Ave West end of the building and on the 1st Ave West end, directly across the street from the school stairs (directions here). All are welcome to attend to learn more about our neighborhood’s architectural history!
