About the Gallery
| What: |
This February, St. George and St. Shenouda's Coptic Orthodox Church will host the Second Annual Art in Heaven Gallery. Our generous and talented artists are creating and donating several pieces of Christian-themed art to be showcased and sold via a silent auction. Works of various forms will be exhibited, including paintings, sculptures, photography and woodworks. Our aim is to display the talent of Coptic artists in a spiritual setting. Please join us for a night of original and innovative art, hors d'oeuvres, and fellowship.
