Sunday, August 16: Ascension Art Show!

Share This Post

Our third in the series of Ascension artists forums will be this coming Sunday. Three of our talented parishioners have offered to share some of their artwork with us in small groups during coffee hour. The artworks they present may have been done during this time of quarantine — or may not. After a general coffee hour time, we will be sorted into three breakout rooms, one for each artist. After 10 minutes, the artists will move to a different room, and then they will move a third time. That way, all participants can interact with each of the three artists. We welcome Dan Connelly, Shep Skiff, and Linda Webb. We are so appreciative of their talent and their willingness to share!

O heavenly Father, who hast filled the world with beauty: Open our eyes to behold thy gracious hand in all thy works.

— The Book of Common Prayer, page 814
