(Special Sunday School) Redeeming Vision: Looking at and Learning From Giotto

Date

Sunday, March 5, 2023

Time

9:00am

Details

This is a special class, offered at both 9 & 10:45am*!

Is there a distinctly Christian way to look at art? In this interactive lecture, Dr. Elissa Yukiko Weichbrodt will teach us the basics of engaging with artworks and explore how a 14th century painting — Giotto’s Lamentation — can challenge and encourage us in our faith.
