The Sacred Art Guild quietly works in the background to celebrate and encourage the sacred gift of creation in humans. When God created humankind in its own image, creation became a part of all of us. Some people express this spark in music, some in science, some in building, some in dance, some in raising children, and some through visual arts. Because the visual arts have inspired expressions of faith for as long as humans have been around, churches have historically supported the arts. At St. Mark’s, we believe the visual arts are just one part of a rich and varied community. 

​

Each quarter, an invitational show, open to the public, is hung in our Parish Hall. Solo or Small Group exhibits are offered in the library (except during construction). The Sacred Arts Guilding retains a small 20% commission on art sales, which is used to purchase art for the church and to provide funds for special needs to enhance the beauty of our buildings and grounds.

​​

These Sacred Arts Galleries are open to the public Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 2 pm and Sundays, 9 am to 12 pm. ​​
