MUSIC AND FINE ARTS

The Art of Aaron Silver

January 17 – March 21

Silver interprets contemporary experience and events through rigorous, beautiful, and thought-provoking papercuts.

Singing the Art of Aaron Silver — Again!

Sunday, March 15 — 3:00 p.m.
Chapel Lounge

The first music event we hosted was so well received that we are gathering for another. The songs are based on Hebrew texts that are part of the works in the exhibit.

National Lutheran Choir

Sacred Refuge: From Light to Light

Sunday, March 22 — 4:00 p.m.
Gloria Dei Lutheran Church, St. Paul, MN

As we transition from the stillness of winter into the promise of spring, we are invited to seek refuge in song. The heart of this program is Aaron McDermid’s From Light to Light, commissioned by the National Lutheran Choir in 2008, with texts by Susan Palo Cherwien.

Buy tickets here.

Confidential financial assistance is available for events for which there is a cost. Contact Pastor Crippen or Vicar Nelson.

WAY OF THE CROSS

With the return of Lent comes the return of the Way of the Cross. Visual representations of the nine Stations of the Cross we observe on Good Friday surround the assembly in the nave.

Take a few moments to ponder each work.

• Does it inspire consonance or dissonance in you? Why might that be?
• How might God be speaking in you through this artwork and your reactions to it?
