SUMMARY:

The Paris-Yates Chapel is an interdenominational chapel for the University of Mississippi. The centerpiece of this project is an 85-foot tower housing a 36-bell carillon. The tower is flanked on one side by the sanctuary and on the other by meditation rooms arranged around an outdoor cloister space. The sanctuary seats 250 people. In 2006, we upgraded the railing in front of the organ to screen the organist. In 2008, we added a memorial garden to the chapel grounds to honor students and faculty who have perished while attending the university.
