The front entrance featured figures that represented Puck and Titania from Shakespeare’s “Midsummer Night’s Dream” for which Felix Mendelssohn composed music. The first lesson that Dr. Wolf gave in Lancaster was on Mendelssohn’s birthday, February 3. That date was always celebrated with a Mendelssohn recital.
A watercolor of the Ephrata Cloister painted by James McBey in 1940 hung in the front hall.
