Clarke Chapel
Built in 1939, Clarke Chapel has long served as a haven for public discourse and tradition. In 1958, five years prior to the “I Have a Dream” speech, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. addressed the Lycoming College community in Clarke Chapel about “Facing the Challenge of a New Age.” The Chapel now hosts many orchestral and choral performances each year, including our annual tradition of the Candlelight Service. The lower level of the Clarke Building is currently home to our music program, featuring classrooms, practice rooms, and an electronic studio.

🕯 Christmas Candlelight Service
The Lycoming College community joins together in Clarke Chapel every Christmas season to celebrate the holiday. The service is a popular college tradition during the Advent season that features lessons led by Lycoming students, faculty and staff, as well as musical performances by the college’s choir, chamber choir and woodwind and brass ensembles.
