Carmel New Church and School

This church and its original school wing are arguably the crowning achievement of John Lingwood, one of Ontario’s more imaginative mid-20th-century architects. Fieldstone, ribbons of windows and an abstract, wood-shingled roof create a one-of-a-kind, sculptural building. Inside, wood, stone, terrazzo and dramatic angles produce subtle effects of light, colour and sound. Check their schedule for musical performances during Doors Open.
