Charitable Arts

SOURCE: "Flevit Super illam" Enrique Simonet (1866-1927) Prado Museum, Madrid. "Spanish artist Enrique Simonet sketched and prayed on the heights of the Mount of Olives, overlooking the vista..." He completed the painting in Rome at the age of twenty-six.

Who we are

The ministry includes novice to professional and anyone in between (Painters, draftsmen, sculptors, printmakers, photographers, potters, and putters). We also help maintain St. Luke's garden near the Youth Ministry garage near the Main Church.  
 

How & why

Through the thoughtful use of interests and talents, like-minded people share a unique opportunity to enrich the parish.  By encouraging each other to greater achievement, and through collaborative works, shows, and fundraisers, we strive to support the various needs of St. Joseph Parish and its other ministries.

The Charitable Arts Ministry, CAM, meets on the first Tuesday of every month forward from August 2025 until June 2026 in the Coyne Room at the Cody Center from 7 p.m. until 8 p.m. This time is offered to nurture the artist within the artist and can be used to engage in a structured meeting or work on your creative process. Please stop in and meet participants and have your questions answered.
