UPCOMING EXHIBITS

We have had a busy fall and winter, and are beginning to work out our exhibit schedule for 2013...stay tuned!!
One venue we know about is the Wisconsin United Methodist Conference in Madison June 7-9. We really enjoyed being there last year and are looking forward to being there this year too. If you will be there, stop by our exhibit! (Unfortunately, the Northern Illinois conference is not having outside exhibitors this year, so we will not be able to exhibit there.)

Alverno Alumnae Art Exhibit

I just got word that the two pieces of artwork (see below) that I submitted for the Alumnae Exhibit were accepted. The exhibit opens on October 5, and will run through October.
Stop by if you can!



This Advent/Christmas silk-screened tissue banner expresses joy and thanksgiving that the Lord is at hand — and these are my feelings also about my experience at Alverno, which God was very much in: it was a journey of growth and discovery that challenged me and changed my teaching practice—and me!



THE PRAYER OF ST. FRANCIS

The prayer of St. Francis expresses the desire to be a giving person, showing forth God’s love, thus the background image of someone with outstretched arms. At Alverno, I experienced the life-changing power of caring, positive feedback and encouragement which caused me to grow, changing my teaching practice and me!

 

 

A busy summer!

Summer was full of visitors--both family and friends--and travel (North Carolina/Blue Ridge Mountains, Peru and Cape Ann, MA)...and little artwork action except for exhibiting at the Symposium at Cardinal Stritch on August 16, right after we returned from 2 weeks in Peru!

Our trip to Peru was with a group from our parish--it was such a blessing to visit Fr. Alex's mission at Alto Cayma outside of Arequipa! We also enjoyed being able to visit the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, and soak in the color, sounds, views, etc. And my week with college roommates by the seaside in Gloucester was another blessing :) Now it's back to life in Milwaukee!

Upcoming August Exhibit

Magnify the Lord Artwork will again be exhibiting at the The Sixth Annual Symposium on Lay Ministries at Cardinal Stritch University on August 16th. The topic is "Vatican II at 50:The Vision and DreamsYet to be Realized."

Credit cards now accepted!!

 
We now have the capability to accept credit cards for purchases, using "the square"!
A big thank you to those customers who were so patient with us at our UMC exhibits while we were in learning mode...

Spring exhibits...

Magnify the Lord Artwork was privileged to exhibit this spring at three major conferences: the National Association of Catholic Chaplains in Milwaukee in May, and in June, the Wisconsin United Methodist Conference in Wisconsin Dells, WI, and The Northern Illinois United Methodist Conference in St. Charles, IL! It was a busy and successful exhibit season :)

Thank you to all who visited our display!! We trust that our artwork will continue to inspire and bless you.

Exhibiting at Pheasant Run...

Next we are exhibiting at the Illinois United Methodist Annual Conference at Pheasant Run, Illinois-another new venue for us! The conference theme is "Celebrate God's Amazing Work" and it runs from June 6-9. Displays will be set up by 1:00pm on Wednesday and will remain up until noon on Saturday. Come visit our exhibit!
