Art on our walls
|

During the first part of the summer, Gage Hall walls have been bare, so it was indeed a pleasure to hang another show and to see Art On Our Walls once again!
The current show comes from the church's small permanent collection and features exterior and interior views of our historic building. Two of the artists are UU members, Cisco Lindsey and Mary Cote.
Cisco's frontal view of the church is a colorful and realistic rendition while Mary's interior view shows the sanctuary undergoing its current renovation. Several other prints are shown, including one given by Caterine Key.
In September the Fine Arts Committee will offer a historical review of the church building, again using work from its own collection but also photos that Paul Garbarini has found in our archives and from other sources.
Members and visitors will see architectural renderings of the 1778 building, views of the remodeled church in the mid-1800s, shots of the church after the 1886 earthquake, and photos of findings during the current renovation.
 In October, the Fine Arts Committee will again exhibit work of UU members and friends. Applications will be available on the website, or through Joanna Innes at innesjoanna@yahoo.com.
Other plans for the coming year include combining efforts with the Music Committee. Each of the Candlelight Concerts will include an Art Opening. Those dates are February 4 and April 1.
The Fine Arts Committee includes Amy Ball and Joanna Innes, co-chairs; Cisco Lindsey, Will Moredock, Jean Pendleton, Emily Reiblein, Myrtle Staples, and Jo Westbrock.
If you have any questions please contact Joanna Innes, or the Church office.
The print shown here is one made with Akura ink by the late Jim Innes, entitled, The Assumption of Remedias.
