Praying, Living, & Loving the Franciscan Way
Sister Thomasita Fessler,OSF was instrumental in founding the Cardinal Stritch University Art Department. She collected Christmas creches from around the world in her many travels to gather art for her studio and comment on art.Her philosophy of art was that everyone was an artist and that one could furnish and decorate one’s own home tastefully and creatively oneself. She had many contracts to create church art. Her family had several artists and architects in it, including Erhard Brielmaier, who designed our Mother house chapel, St. Josaphats Basilica and St.Benedict the Moor, all in Milwaukee, WI. He had three granddaughters in the OSF community.
