Westminster at the Loring Park Art Festival

For the second year in a row, Westminster Presbyterian Church in Minneapolis will sponsor a booth at the annual Loring Park Art Festival, held July 30 from 10 am to 6 pm and July 31 from 10 am to 5 pm. For the first time last year, Westminster sponsored a booth at the neighborhood art fair as an opportunity to take the church’s telling presence into our local community. The Westminster booth includes information about ministry areas at Westminster and scheduled performances throughout the two-day event.

This year, Westminster’s most recent Artist-in-Residence Katherine Parent will lead a community art project at the booth, which will join the current Westminster Gallery exhibition in August. In addition, last year’s Artist-in-Residence Joe Davis will perform at the booth at Noon on Sunday, July 31.
