Lessons & Carols 2015 Roundup (2 of 3 – The Art)

(Part 2 of 3)

THE ART

We took a different approach to the art this year. The last two years I simply asked one person who I knew was a competent artist to create three pieces. (Cate Miller in 2014; Tyler Dirks in 2013). But I knew we had untapped artistic talent in the church, so I put out a general call to the congregation for artists to create works for L&C. We had seven people sign up to create nine pieces of art; one piece for each lesson. The results were better than I could have imagined and I am so, so proud of these folks! Most of them aren’t regularly making a lot of art, so part of this is a desire I have to see artists in our midst be driven to create. My hope is that they find more reasons to keep creating. As in previous years, each piece was auctioned off in the annual silent auction held by JWU RUF. If you would like to commission work, leave a comment and I’ll put you in touch.
