Visual Arts

The Trinity Visual Arts Committee mission is to foster community through engaging the congregation in the creative bench arts—ceramics, drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, design, craft—and the new mediums of photography and filmmaking. All are welcome, regardless of skill level, to learn, spend time together, and grow.

Lively Arts

Lively Arts is an active ministry of theater and poetry. We sponsor an annual public reading of poetry and other writings by Trinity parishioners and community friends. The monthly meeting of Poets Corner improves members’ writing, sometimes toward published work.

The Lively Arts Committee produced two multimedia poetic dramas written and directed by members of the committee, with additional participation by the Movement Choir, Trinity Youth Chorus, or world-famous artists. Central to our work is Core Values-based service to each other and the larger community.
