Mt. Gretna Tabernacle — Homepage Design Options

What the research said: visitors come for times and dates first, then directions & parking, then giving. The audience skews 65+, so every option uses 18–20px body text, high contrast, large buttons, and no auto-rotating sliders. "All programs are free — freewill offering" is the Festival's biggest differentiator in a town of paid stages, so it's front and center in each. Imagery marked FPO is a placeholder for new photography.
