Cooper Memorial Chapel is a chapel located along Lake Norwood in Bella Vista, Arkansas, designed by E. Fay Jones and Maurice Jennings and constructed in 1988.[1] The chapel was commissioned by John A. Cooper, Sr. to honor Mildred Borum Cooper, his late wife. The chapel was designed with a mind toward celebrating both God and his creations.[2][3] The chapel is a popular tourist destination in Northwest Arkansas, as well as a widely used wedding ceremony location. ArchitectureThe design recalls the Prairie School of architecture popularized by Frank Lloyd Wright, with whom Jones had apprenticed. Jones used steel and glass to create a series of Gothic arches that run the length of the chapel.[4] Though it looks like an open-air structure, the chapel is a glass-enclosed, air-conditioned space. Soon after completion the chapel was praised that it "quietly commands a dignity and presence uncommon among buildings of our era."[5] See also
