Re-Telling

Re-Telling
Unitarian Universalist Community of the Mountains
January 5, 2025
Sophia McKean and Randy McKean, Worship Associates

What do you do when your history has been purposefully obscured? This Sunday, we look at Beyonce’s Cowboy Carter and the creation of a Queer British Art exhibit at the Tate as two examples of answers to that question. Join us for an exploration of the ways art can help us reclaim lost stories.
