Mildred B. Cooper Memorial Chapel

[3] Located on a wooded site along Lake Norwood, the chapel has become a popular tourist destination in Northwest Arkansas.

Jones apprenticed with Frank Lloyd Wright, and designed a building with numerous windows open to the landscape.

Jones used 31 tons of steel and 4,460 square feet of glass[1] to create a series of tall, vertical Gothic arches that run the length of the chapel.

Soon after completion, the chapel was praised; a critic said that it "quietly commands a dignity and presence uncommon among buildings of our era.

"[5] Mildred Borum Cooper, born and raised in Arkansas, spent much of her life in service to her people and community.
