Bucking the tendency of successful architects to gravitate toward towering skyscraper projects, throughout his career Jones favored designing homes and churches with an intensely geometric and organic modern style.

Arizona-based architect Eddie Jones will give a lecture, The Architecture of Fay Jones, focusing on the life and work of Jones with a focus on the chapel. The talk will be followed by a screening of the documentary Sacred Spaces: The Architecture of Fay Jones.
