Notes

2005-10-24 - Updated through on-line information from Chris Snyder. -Database Manager

2010-12-20 - The Fine Arts Center underwent a significant expansion and renovation, which was completed in 2010. The name Covenant was added to the Fine Art Center's name at that time. The auditorium, where the organ is located, was not expanded, however. The instrument is known as the Bernard D. Zondervan Memorial Organ and was dedicated December 31, 1967. -Database Manager
