Church of Christ Congregational plans to have its Battell Chapel open most of the day on Saturday for viewing window by Louis Comfort Tiffany and Maitland Armstrong. The Tiffany windows, located in a curved wall, depict the four seasons, two on either side of a woodland stream scene. The beautiful windows in the main church may be seen most of the weekend lighting the Haystack Quilters’ show.

Also on Saturday, Church of the Immaculate Conception will be opening to visitors who want to see its windows. These are by Franz Meyer & Co. of Munich, and were shipped to Norfolk from the factory in the mid 1920’s. The windows may also be seen after the church service on Sunday.

On Sunday, Church of the Transfiguration is having an open house for window viewing immediately after its service, which all are invited to attend. The windows are by several different artists; subjects include the innkeeper in the story of the Good Samaritan and the Transfiguration.

Other stained glass will be on view during the Norfolk Historical Society Museum’s one-hour walking tours on Sunday afternoon.

Weekend in Norfolk, August 5, 6 and 7, is a three-day, town-wide art, music and nature festival. Events run the gamut from art exhibits to nature walks, world-class music to a watermelon-eating contest, a quilt show and boat-building demonstrations to the opportunity to get married on the Village Green, and new events still being added. Visit weekendinnorfolk.org for viewing hours and other details.
