Art in the Lounge

Rosanna McFadden and Suella Gerber continue to hang pieces from the permanent art collection on the walls of AMBS The warm earth tones of this fabric wall-hanging complement the new fireplace in the Lounge and provide an accent in the large brick wall that used to be covered with book shelves. The hanging was madefor use in the chapel by Karmen Krahn, former AMBS student.







After the second world war, hundreds of North American Mennonites worked as volunteers in Germany to rebuild homes and infrastructure. As a gesture of gratitude, the German government sent original artistic works which are now housed at AMBS. Three of these pieces now hang on the south wall of the Lounge:
