Bethany Lutheran Church is once again celebrating the creative gifts of its community with the return of the Bethany Member Arts & Craft Show, a beloved tradition now entering its approximate 10th year. First established by Judy Hollister and Bethany Gola, this biennial event has become a meaningful way for members of all ages to share their talents and connect through art.
The 2025 exhibit will feature original works from both adults and children. Adults (ages 13 and above) may submit up to three pieces of artwork or craft collections, while children (ages 5–12) are invited to enter one piece. All submissions must be framed and ready to hang, with a wire or hook securely attached to the back. Artwork can be dropped off in Luther Hall on Sunday, July 13; Monday, July 14; or Tuesday, July 15.
The exhibit will open on Sunday, July 20 and remain on display through Sunday, August 10. Whether you’re an artist or an admirer, be sure to stop by Luther Hall this summer to enjoy the creative spirit of the Bethany community on full display.
If you are interested in exhibiting a piece of art, or have questions, please contact Judy Hollister at 815-459-5209 or Cell: 815-621-2555.
