The Old Meeting House Anti-Racism Taskforce
Film Discussion Series
Film Discussion Series
As part of our continuing efforts to study, reflect and act against racism, we will be hosting a film discussion series on the fourth Friday of every month. Our first film was "I Am Not Your Negro," a 2016 documentary based on James Baldwin's unfinished manuscript, Remember This House. Linda Schutz hosted a zoom discussion group on January 22 at 7:30pm. Our second film will be "13th," which is available on Netflix and for free on YouTube. Heidi Tringe will host that discussion group on Friday, February 26 at 7:30pm. If you have any questions, please contact Linda at ldschu7@aol.com or Heidi at hkmohlman@hotmail.com.
Parish House Gallery
Pandemic Inspirations - artwork by Wendy Soliday
These abstract paintings have been my saving grace during the pandemic. I had done very few abstracts and in the last few months, I have allowed myself to play and experiment with acrylics. Some of them are pretty wild, some I love, some I hate, but all of them taught me something and provide now splashes of color in this snowy white world. I have been reading about art and prayer; sometimes drawing, painting, scribbling can capture a prayer better than words alone.
