Happy St. Patrick's Day!
StPatStatuePatron Saint of Ireland
 
With more than 40 million Americans able to trace their ancestry back to an island with a current population just over 4 million, St. Patrick is the patron saint of a proud diaspora.
 
His image appears in statuary and stained glass in almost every church named for him and in many which are not.
 
Please contact Dixon Studio if you would like to see options for your church!

Restoring Old St. Patrick's Church
 
AmboAs the 150th anniversary of the church approaches, parishioners at old St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Richmond, Virginia are working to restore its original beauty.
Dixon Studio is helping with vintage items including pews, statuary, pedestals, and sanctuary furnishings, as well as some new votives, marble, and stencil work.
