The
current
St
Mark’s
was
constructed
on
the
northern
edge
of
New
Canaan
in
the
late-1950s,
and
embedded
in
its
Modernist
design
are
nods
to
neo-Gothic
architecture.
Accompanied
by
a
separate
bell
tower,
the
church
can
seat
600
and
has
lots
of
exquisite
details,
from
the
vibrant
stained
glass
on
three
sides
to
the
free-standing
altar
and
floor-to-ceiling
reredos
adorned
with
bronze
sculpture
by
Clark
Fitzgerald.
Every
element
was
designed
purposely
for
this
building.
St
Mark’s
is
on
leafy
grounds
and
becomes
the
center
of
attention
in
New
Canaan
for
the
May
Fair,
featuring
rides,
games,
entertainment,
delicious
food
(strawberry
short
cake
of
course)
and
the
huge
May
Fair
White
Elephant
Tag
Sale.
