Art and creativity in all its forms have been important in the life of Glade Church for many years.
At Glade, we believe that spirituality is accessed, experienced, and expressed in many different ways, sometimes especially so through art. The sanctuary at Glade Church has served as an art gallery where local artists have displayed their original work. Partnering with the Blacksburg Regional Art Association (BRAA), the gallery is dedicated to featuring BRAA artists. The art and featured artists rotates throughout the year.
During the year, art workshops are offered with the proceeds going to support service projects such as Laundry Love. In addition, art, music or storytelling is, at times, incorporated into Sunday worship.
You don’t have to consider yourself an artist to be part of the arts at Glade. We all have creativity within us. Glade seeks to help us access our creative side, while enjoying other’s art as well.
