Arts at UUC
UUC supports art as an important component of the life of members, friends, and the broader local community. Art is an expression of the human spirit. Art often touches viewers in a deep and significant way and can provide experience of mystery and wonder, which is one source of insight for Unitarian Universalists.
The Committee on Visual Arts usually organizes art exhibits at UUC for the benefit of area artists and the appreciation of those using the Meeting House. If you’re interested in displaying your art at UUC, please contact Denise Martin.

About the Artist: “I have an MFA from Louisiana State University in painting and art-history. I’ve taught art-history at Southern University (an HBCU), and taught art-history, drawing, and basic design at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. At Virginia Tech, I taught First and Second Year Design, Cultural Studies, and African Traditional Architecture in the College of Architecture. I’ve exhibited my paintings and drawings extensively (including a one-person show at the Alternative Gallery at the Roanoke Art Museum), and have also exhibited art-quilts nationally and internationally. My imagery often has to do with aerial views of the earth’s patterns.”
