Spirituality in the Arts
Spirituality in the Arts is a series of performances and exhibitions that began
in 2004. Featuring both amateur and professional artists, musicians, and
performers -- some from Nativity, some from outside -- we seek to glorify God
and to entertain by offering arts events that communicate God's love for us
and our love for God and one another.
The general public is invited. There is no charge, except where art
consumables are needed or dinner is included. Events are held at
Nativity.
Schedule for the 2009-2010 season:
- Sunday, September 20, 4 pm. "Bach Cello Project - Concert 1",
featuring Three Sonatas for Cello and Piano. Additional concerts on January
