Visitors from Baltimore

We continue to welcome visitors to the Provincial Archives, and introduce ourselves to the local archival community. On Friday, February 15, we welcomed Fr. John C. Kemper, S.S., Director of St. Mary’s Spiritual Center and Historic Site in Baltimore (center), and Tricia Pyne, Director of the Associated Archives at St. Mary’s Seminary and University, also in Baltimore (right). Here, Provincial Archivist Dee Gallo (left) shows paintings of St. Vincent, St. Louise, and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton as part of a tour of the new repository.
