The Children's Winter Art Show has just opened. Check it out at Coffee Hour. You'll find an array of colorful, imaginative work. This show continues until the end of January, when the Fine Arts Committee will hang works on loan from UU members and friends, from their private collections.
It will be interesting to see the art work acquired. The labels will carry the typical information of title and medium but also the owner's name.
To aid the committee in making selections, please submit your information to Joanna Innes no later than January 15.
This art show will follow the Candlelight Concert performed in the sanctuary on Friday, February 3 at 7:30 PM. Guest organist, Christopher Jacobson, an organist at Trinity Cathedral in Columbia, SC and former organist for the National Cathedral in Washington D.C., will present a program which features music of the French repertoire
As in the past, following the concert, a reception for the performer and an opening for the art work will take place in Gage Hall. Please note that both facilities are handicap accessible.
This benefit concert ($10 at the door) provides funds that supplement the music program for the James Simons Elementary School. Laren Parr, music director, comments that "these funds help her purchase instruments and materials to enhance the music offerings for the children and are greatly appreciated."
The third and final concert and art opening for the year occurs on April 6. Lin Raymond, Music Director, will perform a selection of piano works.
And for the UU Spring Show, UU members and friends will again show their own work.
The Fine Arts Committee includes Amy Ball and Joanna Innes, co-chairs; Jack Hurley, Cisco Lindsey, Will Moredock, Myrtle Staples, and Jo Westbrock.
