St. Alphonsus Parish Art and Text Show

Community Room

March 29 thru April 5

“Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.” (Leonardo da Vinci).

Become part of an exciting event.  Express your ideas about the relationship of Faith and Beauty.  Collaborate with other creative works and artists.  Families!  Create a work together.  Be part of an exhibit of parishioners expressing their Faith through art.  Attend a closing reception to celebrate art & text.

How: Choose one of the poetic texts from those provided in a bulletin announcement.  Reflect on the text and what it says to you.  Consider the various media you might use.  Plan the work.  Consider sharing a preliminary sketch or plan with someone you know.  Create the work of art in response to the text.            

When & Where: Bring your work of art to completion, and turn it in by February 15, 2020.  Your work will be displayed in the Community Room March 29 to April 5, 2020, with a closing celebration after 11:00 a.m. Mass on April 5.
