"I have so many memories of The Barn, they are diverse, filled with people's faces, moments of great theater, good food, bad coffee, late nights and early mornings, cats, kids, and black flies. Tony created a place that was like a church is supposed to be - a place of deep searching, a place where risk and those who fail are picked up and encouraged to grow, a place where community and grace abound. The Barn for me was a spiritual place as well as a creative center, a place of growth, a place of intense personal struggle and discipline."

- Doug Berky
