Indian chapel. Wellesley Island, New York - Tiny Church with Indian Statue

This sedate, tiny chapel is in a wooded area on Wellesley Island. It's called The Chapel! It will seat about six people. There is a sculpture placed near the Chapel created by Carmen Davino, a famous artist who recently passed on. Carmen was nominated for two (I think) Academy Awards for animation years ago. He lived in nearby Hammond and became a noted painter and sculpture artist. I met him a few times and he was a real nice guy.

In the photo, my son-in-law, Mike the cop, examines the wooden Indian where the Lord would customarily stand. [Ron Spooner, 02/19/2005]
