The Arts Council invites you to an opening reception featuring the exhibit, "Birds, Bees, Butterflies and Other Wild Things". This exhibit will display photography by Connie Pilcher. Come meet Connie in person on Sunday, October 4 at 11:30am in the church narthex. Light refreshments will be served.

Artist Statement:
"I am so excited to be able to share my passion for photography with you. As a retired art/photography teacher, I became interested in birding and the challenges if offers.

As a result, I started adding butterflies and occasional bees. Lately, seeing counts of these species drop dramatically, I became interested in preservation of their environment. Much of our food source is dependent on them, and blindly we are destroying them.

With this show, I want to exhibit not only their beauty but their plight."

Exhibit runs October 4-November 29. Viewing is available on Sundays from 10:00-11:00am and all other days by appointment. Email [email protected] for scheduling information.

All purchases made benefit the artist, Arts Council and the church.
