The Marion E. Wade Center promotes cultural engagement and spiritual formation by offering a collection of resources available nowhere else in the world. We emphasize the ongoing relevance of seven British Christian authors who provide a distinctive blend of intellect, imagination, and faith: C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Dorothy L. Sayers, George MacDonald, G.K. Chesterton, Owen Barfield, and Charles Williams. The Wade Center implements these goals by Assisting scholars in their study of unique materials by and about these seven authors in order to generate new understandings; Sharing insights with a broader audience through our numerous programs and publications; Supporting artistic works inspired by our authors; Welcoming visitors to our museum.
