About the event
A View from the Abbey returns to The Ottawa Center for the Arts with an engaging afternoon of storytelling and reflection. Join us Sunday, March 29 at 2:00 pm for a moderated conversation with Dr. Tom Jobst, led by Kane Farabaugh, as Dr. Jobst shares memories from his days as a football player under legendary Ottawa High School coach Bill Novak, his coaching years at Ottawa Township High School and Marquette High School, and a remarkable career as a teacher and administrator spanning 1973–2007. This monthly series offers an intimate look at lives that have shaped our community—followed by audience Q&A in the warm, historic setting of The Abbey.
