Arts

UUCLB has for many years exhibited the work of local artists in Wylder Hall. Church members volunteer to manage these art shows; a reception, open to the public, is held to inaugurate a new show. 

A permanent collection was inaugurated in 2009;  it is under the supervision of the Music and Arts Committee.

The Earl Birch Smith "Art in the Church" award is given annually to someone who has made a significant artistic contribution to the life of the congregation. The 2011 award winner was Edie Mickey-Silveria, a member of Wylder Spirits, Choir, and leader of the sound crew.

Currently, the exhibiting artist is Clark Begina. Michael Shannon is the Art Curator.

 

Ramón Rodriguez often exhibits.
