CHAPEL OF THE LITTLE PORTION
Located on the lake behind the New Harmony Inn, the Chapel of the Little Portion was designed by Stephen de Staebler and constructed with stucco and wood in 1989 by the New Harmony Inn and the brothers of Mount Saint Francis.

"Descent of the Holy Spirit" sculpture by Jacques Lipchitz which is present within the upside rose pedal chapel, which itself is within the walls of the Roofless Church in New Harmony, Indiana. Photo slightly altered for color effect, but really is a great piece of work.

FINAL DAY TO SEE THE LAMP PROJECT!!!
The Lamp Project is an experimental student-driven exhibition that explores functional ceramics through the material of light-giving objects. The Lamp as a form provides a useful touchstone to explore the aesthetic values of the handmade and the more familiar aesthetics of consumerism and material culture. Ranging from the cute, the kitsch, the hungry, the romantic, and the occasionally austere, each individual contribution offers a thematically playful and unique approach to both form and content.

Many claim New Harmony is a utopia. Johann Georg Rapp and his Harmonie Society founded Harmonie on the Wabash in 1814. The Harmonists called the town their “neu Harmonie” having left their initial American home in Harmonie Pennsylvania. Its members were Separatists from the German Lutheran Church. This millennial society, waiting for Christ to come, build 180 buildings in the 10 years they were here and many are still standing today. They produced quality products including textiles, rope, barrels, tin ware, leather goods, candles, bricks and much more using the latest machinery and technology available. Because beverages were in demand in neighboring and river towns, wine, whiskey and beer were produced in large quantities. The daily production of whiskey was about 32 gallons and 500 gallons of beer were brewed every other day. The Harmonists applied their shared work ethic to achieve uncommon economic success, but in 1824 moved back to Pennsylvania and built their third town called Economy.
Robert Owen, a Welsh-born industrialist and social reformer, and William Maclure, an educator and the Father of American Geology, purchased the town from Father Rapp in 1825 and the second utopia was to be a new moral world based on equal education and equal social status. They brought the “Boatload of Knowledge” to New Harmony, navigating here with many scientists and educators including Entomologist and Conchologist Thomas Say. Years after Say’s death, his firefly became Indiana’s official state insect on March 23, 2018. Although their utopian vision eventually dissolved, the creative efforts of the Owen/Maclure period are still evident today.
The third utopia can be attributed to Jane Blaffer Owen (1915-2010). During her tine in New Harmony she brought modern architecture to the town, such as the Roofless Church, the Atheneum and many public art pieces. She created serenity with Tillich Park, Church Park and the Cathedral Labyrinth and has left behind a legacy all her own.
Utopia hasnt’ ceased to exist even today in this captivating little Southern Indiana town. New Harmony is full of life, offering all sorts of activities from one of a kind eateries, specialty shops, antiques, festivals, art, nature and history. Visit New Harmony and you’ll find yourself coming back to experience utopia for many years to come.
