05/13/11 – Art for God’s Sake Opening Reception

Click to view in Lightbox

Art for God’s Sake is a juried, professional art show that highlights sacred themes. I have three pieces featured in the exhibit – all fine art photography from West Michigan – on gallery-wrapped canvas.

The 3-day, multi-faceted exhibition includes an elegant opening-night gala, interactive art demos, and educational opportunities for all! It also showcases the non-juried artwork of well-known artists and local clergy. St. Anastasia Church will be awarding a total of $5,000 in prizes. A portion of the proceeds will go towards The Canticle Café, a warming center serving the homeless.

Tickets are needed for the show: http://www.artfgs.com/ticket-sales
