Some of the Artists participated in the panel discussion on the intersection of faith and art. They discussed their inspiration for creating their work and how their Christian Worldview impacts their art.
After the panel Joel & Michelle thanked the volunteers, and Christina, the director of the event, for all their support and hard work.
We had an amazing dessert reception following the event with delicious French pastries! It was a great time of fellowship and the audience was able to enjoy some one on one time with the artists
