Preparing for ART @ Dignity Diner

Together with Dignity Diner, our patrons and other support, we are in the process of planning and preparing for the gallery opening featuring ART @Dignity Diner.

Every Tuesday evening, patrons are invited to be our guests at a sit-down vegetarian dinner. Following the meal, Dignity Diner patrons and volunteers connect through a variety of art activities. Annually, the CareTeam organizes an art show to showcase Dignity Diner patrons and their artwork.

The images within this post are a small sampling of the work featured in our upcoming show. At right is an image from a recent photography project. Also included is an image of a recent painting. A copy of a poem written by a third patron is found below.

As always, CareTeam events are free to attend! There will be light refreshments and the evening will include a silent auction of artists' work. The Diner also greatly appreciated donations of powered drink mix, paper products and bottled salad dressing.

Join us Friday November 6th from 6-9pm in the Community Space of Holy Covenant United Methodist Church at 925 W Diversey. Easily accesible from Diversey Brown Line, #8 Halsted, #22 Clark, #36 Broadway.
"our love is but a fortress"
our love is but a fortess
against indifference and
the climate of change
our love is a border against
invasion by zealots
our love is a defense
against those who wish to
deny the power of love
our love is the ultimate
weapon
our love is the solution to
war
ultimately our love is
greater than war
yet in the end love
surrenders to war
to the end hate is a
stronger emotion than
love
because love takes
more energy than hate.
