Feasting is a central theme in our lives and in the story of God, and this event is an opportunity to reflect creatively on how we experience the goodness of God in material, sensory, and edible ways. A series of original paintings by Hilary Siber Edwards are inspired by the Old Testament Feasts of the Lord as filtered through her own story, and a spoken word performance by Monica Harrison will explore this theme through the gift of words. This event includes a dessert reception, an opportunity for audience response and Q&A, and time to mingle and enjoy the artwork and each other.
