WINGS, WATER, and WONDER
by Sarabeth Clevenger
Join us the evening of November 21 to celebrate the artwork of long-time friend of the Center, Sarabeth Clevenger.
Enjoy a glass of wine and a bite to eat while you view Sarabeth’s awe-inspiring, large-scale multimedia work.
“At this point in my life, I am continuing to explore my spiritual connections, by closely observing my environment, and combining images that move me: mountains, water, rocks and light, with images suggesting mystery and wonder: Angels and Cherubim, wings and bones, death and life, and the spaces between them. Many pieces in this show are retrospective, but they fit with newer pieces on the same themes.”
