UUFR supports art as an important component of the life of its members and friends. Art is an expression of the human spirit. Art often touches us in a deep and significant way. It can provide the experience of mystery and wonder, which is one source of insight for Unitarian Universalists. The celebration of art is an important part of a person’s expression of their thoughts, feelings, and spirituality. We provide opportunities for connection, fellowship, and the honoring of our talents, creativity, and imagination through art exhibitions. The gallery walls are a space where we share the creativity of the congregation. We welcome artists of all ages and mediums to engage with us in this creative way of participating in our monthly themed exhibits. To offer a solo or group exhibit, contact the gallery team at .
UUFR Gallery Seasons of Lights – As the earth tilts away from the sun and the natural world transitions toward the solstice, we invite you to explore the profound essence of light during our quietest season. Asking, “What does light mean to you? How does it inspire, comfort, or illuminate?” We are seeking original art in all forms created or owned by members. Whether it be interior firesides, glowing luminaries, and ambient windows that offer refuge from the creeping cold, cozy neighborhood bonfires, glowing lantern walks, and vibrant town light festivals that keep everyone warm or the slow return of longer days, the deep colors of late-afternoon twilight, and stars looking impossibly bright against a crisp, clear winter sky. You decide exactly where your vision fits—show us how you interpret the spark that guides us through the dark. Submit registration by Friday, October 30th, Drop off by Sunday, November 1st in the music room
