The Arts Ministry is designed to encourage not only artists but also those simply interested in the arts to discover God’s creative image through the variety of artistic media He has given us. By sponsoring various activities and events, the Arts Ministry seeks to cultivate in those both inside and outside of the church an increased comprehension of the arts as an expression of God’s transcendent grace and beauty.

GENEMA GALLERY

In keeping with our mission, Genema Gallery, located in the Christ Church foyer, displays quarterly exhibits of local artists’ works.

“From photography, to oils, to watercolors, to mixed media, and focusing on a variety of topics, these exhibits have become a mainstay of the Arts Ministry, both to the artist and to those who come through our doors.”

Each year, the Arts Ministry also sponsors a juried exhibition of paintings, photographs and other media centered upon a chosen theme. The exhibition hangs during the summer months and incorporates a topic covered by the summer sermon series at Christ Church. In the Summer of 2001, the art exhibition and sermon series were centered on the theme of Paradox. Local gallery owners and partners at Atlanta’s High Museum are involved in the final selection of pieces submitted by artists from both the surrounding community and other states.

Other activities include occasional gallery walks and special exhibits, and we have also been known to delve into a book study on a relevant topic.
