a touch of william is the name under which william began sharing his photography and poetry with the public in the 1980s.  The first a touch of william gallery was located at 419 South Bridge Street.  The 417SBS T&SC location (now the T&SC of Grand Ledge) was originally a part of the a touch of william ministry.

Beginning in late 1994, the newly created Teaching & Sharing Center [of Grand Ledge] became the official physical location of a touch of william, and the various atow aspects and activities, even though a touch of william already had a presence in a part of the 417SBS building prior to the establishment of the T&SC. Over those first five years the T&SC changed and evolved as God guided things. However, a touch of william remained fairly constant, particularly with the distribution of william's Poetry & Pictures books.  Everything else grew under the spiritual focus of a touch of william.   When on January 1, 2005 the Teaching & Sharing Center[s] became a non-profit corporation with its own board of trustees, a touch of william became an Independent Affiliated Ministry of the corporation.  The a touch of william Studio/Gallery (along with Cherokee Bill's Teaching & Trade Center) is located on the second floor at the 417SBS building.  Although a touch of william remains a sole-proprietorship, it plays a significant supporting role in the Teaching & Sharing Centers' development.
