New mosaic tile work

An original painting of Saint Philip’s Blessing of the Animals will be newly represented as a mosaic tile work to be hung in the pet memorial area as a first phase of art development there. Its unveiling is scheduled for October 8 in coordination with the annual Blessing of the Animals.

Parishioner Susan Gamble is serving as liaison for this commissioned work with Santa Theresa Tileworks, which turns over all profit made to Imago Dei School.

Saint Philip’s will announce details of a church fund-raising campaign soon.

The 1979 oil-on-canvas painting was donated to the church by artist Barbara Falk. It depicts her remembrance of a specific service that she especially enjoyed. The painting currently hangs in the office area near the west exit to the Perry Garden.
