Claire’s Courtyard
Topeka, Kansas
Claire’s Courtyard was developed to provide a new exterior space adjacent to the Library’s Millennium Cafe. A conditioned sun-room, outdoor patio, and open-air amphitheater provide a unique space for a variety of activities, including dining, lounging, reading, performances, and educational presentations. The courtyard was generously funded by Dr. Glenn Swogger and the Redbud Foundation in memory of his wife, Claire Swogger.
