Throughout the year we invite you to express yourself in artistic ways. Each season we will provide a theme as inspiration based on a Bible verse, in hopes that people will reflect on the theme and create art that is inspired by it. Various media of art are welcome, so whether you are someone who loves to draw, or someone who loves to paint, or someone who loves to sculpt, or someone who loves to knit, the possibilities are endless!
As always, members of the community are invited to participate, since this is a place where “All Are Welcome”. We will display the art in the vicinity of Highland Hall, so that all who come to our building can experience the work that has been offered. Then, on an advertised Sunday we will have an open house in the morning where we will invite all of our artists to be present to have conversation with those who come to see it so that they can gain a better understanding of how the artist sees the theme reflected in their work.
We hope that this art series will be a reminder that we can express our faith in many and various ways, and that our artistic expressions can be edifying to those who experience them!
