点评:Walking through the main doors of St. Ann Arts and Cultural Center in Woonsocket RI, you find yourself in a huge room filled with pews that once housed hundreds of worshipers. Looking around you will find the walls decorated with original frescos painted by a gifted European artist in the 1800's, while sunlight streams through a vast collection of stained glass windows. This unique site rivals the chapels and churches of Europe. A small but very dedicated group of knowledgeable volunteers now oversees the building. During the warmer months of the year they offer tours of the building, which is also serves as a site for weddings, concerts, and fairs. Cost of a tour is $15, with all money going to the care and upkeep of St. Ann.
The group I was with had even planned for us to have breakfast and lunch on the premises. All food was fresh, hot, and delicious ! Everyone should visit St. Ann Arts and Cultural Center at least once!

我所在的团队甚至计划让我们在教堂里吃早餐和午餐。所有的食物都很新鲜、热腾腾、美味可口!每个人都应该至少参观一次圣安艺术文化中心!
