Lumen Presents: Oil Painting and the Religious Symbolism of Light with Christophe Bouchard

  • Prince of Peace Catholic Newman Center 4502 20th Avenue Northeast Seattle, WA, 98105 United States (map)

Visual artists are trained to understand light in technical, biological, and allegorical terms. Christophe Bouchard, a full-time oil painter and practicing Catholic, draws on his unique vocational perspectives to observe the religious symbolism of light and, in doing so, explore various ways we can deepen our relationship with God, the Great Artist and original Creator.

Similar to Theology on Tap, a Lumen event is when we host a young adult or outside speaker, but then chant Night Prayer together (called “Compline”) with the Dominican Friars. This is followed by our social, when we share a refreshing pint of beer or non-alcoholic drink.

The speaker begins at 7pm sharp (plan to arrive a bit early) and the social ends at 10pm.

*** If you plan to leave before 10PM, you MUST park at UW parking lot N5 (5 min walk away), or else your car will be double parked in.
