Creative community For the Common Good

 

ENCOURAGING & EQUIPPING EVERYONE TO LIVE IMAGINATIVE & GENERATIVE LIVES

Following in the footsteps of Art House America, Art House North works to cultivate creativity for the common good. This work is done through our concerts, curated events, artist response evenings, theatrical productions, community partnerships, and artist care in order to bring together the community & inspire everyone to live more imaginative, generative lives. Through nurturing a creative community of people who learn, grow, and create together, we believe good things result -- good things meant for all.

 
 
Next week is our October round of Art House Studies! We are back to our usual time of the month - third Wednesday/Thursday evenings. NOTE: this month we are trying something new! For those of you who love a smaller, more intimate gathering, we are limiting attendance on the Wednesday study to 8 people, while maintaining Thursday at its usual amount of 18. So, if you're a person who feels more comfortable in a larger group - Thursday is for you. But, if the smaller setting (which can be quite lovely as well) feels good, Wednesday it is! Reminder of what these studies are all about: they are designed to be discovery-based, conversational, adventurous and meaningful; a “come as you are” space where you are encouraged to ask every question, and be wherever you are on the spectrum of belief. All creative souls are welcome!! Hope to see you there! Sign up at arthousenorth.com
Tonight we watched a documentary on @urbandoxology, followed by a Q&A with the founder, @davidmbailey. Centered on the topic of Reconciliation. Watching it happen before our eyes with these students who go through the Urban Doxology program was powerful. We got to see cross cultural collaboration & reconciling culture-making. Through increasing your cultural intelligence, and choosing to be uncomfortable, we can bring healing. Confession, forgiveness & grace are necessary in this work. Deeper than our blackness or whiteness, it’s about being a spiritual family. And in our spiritual formation practices, it’s not so much about the destination- it’s more about “how are you being changed or transformed?” There’s SO much more we could say as a response, but we’ll leave you with those few main points. Tonight was mind shifting. Thank you @davidmbailey. If you missed tonight or want to hear more from David, he will also be speaking at @awakenwestseventh at 9:30 & 11am Sunday. (Quickest photo turnaround by the incredible @danemakes of @foreword_co)

“We live by revelation, as Christians, as artists, which means that we must be careful never to get set into rigid molds. The minute we begin to think we know all the answers, we forget the questions, and we become smug like the Pharisee who listed all his considerable virtues and thanked God that he was not like other men.” - an excerpt from Walking on Water by Madeline L’Engle *** we’re going to include something new in our emails next month, that has to do with some of our favorite authors, along with the usual updates for upcoming events. Be sure to sign up for our email list at arthousenorth.com if you haven’t already! (Link in bio)

We are excited to host a screening of the short film “11AM” followed by a conversation with David M. Bailey, founder of Arrabon and Urban Doxology. Please RSVP and join us! (Link in bio! arthousenorth.com/events) . A personal message from Sara: I met David earlier this year at an event hosted by @theportersgate that was focusing on issues of reconciliation (I will highlight music from that event in a future post!! SO GOOD!!), and @urbandoxology led the music. Their mission resonated with me so much and felt kindred to our mission at Art House North - Creative Community For The Common Good! David’s ability to open and hold difficult conversations was a huge part of that experience that weekend, and so we were grateful to be able to host David for our "Artists Respond" series this fall. Honestly, I need more conversations about how to grow and more actively participate in reconciling community. I'm grateful that David will be with us to lead this conversation. Please join us! . Artists Respond is an Art House North series that looks at different cultural issues through the lens of the arts and culture care. . This event is hosted in partnership with @awakenwestseventh where David will be speaking on Sunday morning, the 22nd!
