I am proud to announce the 1st Annual Bezaleel Scholarship Competition

Faith as Art : Art as Faith
Strickler Gallery
September 29 - October 12
Reception: TBA

As Christians working in the visual arts, we have the unique opportunity to use our craft as a means to define our faith in Christ as well as present that to the world in meaningful ways. This exhibition and competition seeks to explore how artists use their medium to define their personal faith and spirituality.

How can art be used to define faith and spirituality? How can art be used to further the Kingdom in meaningful ways? How is the Spirit of God working in your artwork?
