Scheuer Chapel
The S.H. and Helen R. Scheuer Chapel is a consummate sanctuary for any life cycle event or service. Its clean lines and neutral colors encourage the worship experience, and the lead light and stained glass windows fittingly shine abundant light onto the oak wood bimah.
The chapel is home to a Torah Ark from Posen, Poland, dating from 1740, and features ornate wooden carving. Adorning the chapel wall is a Ben Shahn tapestry, one of 19 that exist in the world. There is a multi-camera system that is set up for recording and live streaming of services or events.
Versatile seating arrangements allow for up to 200 guests.
