We Remember – a 9/11 Tribute Art Exhibit

Now through September 30

The events on September 11, 2001 are etched into the memories of everyone who was alive at the time. More people have lost their lives since then than were killed in the original attacks. As we mark the 25th anniversary of that tragedy, the artists from The Arts Ministry take a look back to remember and forward with resolve as we hope for a resolution of Peace.

Participating artists include Patrice Donnell, Susan Ceely Philips, and Margery Westin. Victoria Pepe has prepared a special video titled Flags of 9/11 – a Commemorative Tribute in Remembrance 25 Years that is available in person only.

You may view this exhibit in person outside The Labyrinth Room at Marble.

Take a moment to enjoy the work of these creative artists which brings such light to these dark days. It is our hope that by experiencing all of this fine artwork you will not only be moved in spirit but inspired to help create a world filled with love, peace, and joy!

The Arts Ministry seeks to create an environment that encourages and nurtures artists of all kinds to utilize their gifts.

By consciously and fully involving artists in every area of Marble life, artists are given a platform to share their art and breathe new spirit into the body of the Church, Christ, and the world.

Are you a professional or non-professional performing, fine, or design artist? The Arts Ministry is a safe, welcoming, and creative community that provides an inclusive space to gather together to support and recognize one another’s efforts, discuss and resolve issues pertinent to each discipline, be spiritually nurtured, and to create art.

Get Involved

The Fellowship of Professional Artists
This group meets once a month to address the unique needs of professional artists who are typically more entrepreneurial. Networking, branding, financial matters, goal setting, and marketing will be some of the topics discussed, all within a spiritual framework.

All professional artists are welcome. Please RSVP to Mario Sprouse.

The ARTS Peer Support Group
This is a small group (8 - 12 people) who gather twice a month to do more in-depth artistic and spiritual growth in relation to our art.

The Producers Club
This group meets once a month specifically to help members achieve their immediate professional goals. Much like a goal-setting workshop, the Producers Club will have an accountability factor with the aim of reaching specific professional milestones. Only those who are active professional performing, design, and fine artists can take part in this group.

All artists are welcome! Please RSVP to Mario Sprouse.

Arts Ministry Facebook Group
Artists of all kinds are invited to join our Arts Ministry Facebook Group. We have created a closed group that offers a welcoming space to support and recognize one another’s efforts, explore issues pertinent to each discipline, and be spiritually nurtured. To request to join.

The Arts Ministry is an important part of the vibrant life of Marble Collegiate Church. We hope you will join us!
