If you live in Utah, or are visiting soon, you need to check this out!
The Church History Museum has a new exhibit called:
My friend Melanie (Hi Melanie!) emailed me about it and as soon as I looked it up online,
I knew I wanted to go! So last week my sister Kelsey and I visited and it was great!
The paintings are all focused on the YW Values and it's a celebration of women.
For me this was a great reminder of the principles taught in this last Women's General Meeting (March 2014) where so many of the messages focused on the strength of women, the unity we can have when we focus on our similarities instead of differences, and the opportunity we have to love each other better through all stages of our lives.
Another great thing about the exhibit is that they provide you with a handy dandy workbook that contains three different value experiences to work on while you are at the exhibit! They are for:
Good Works Value Experience 3
Personalized Value Experience for Faith
Knowledge Value Experience 3
(There are also 2 Faith in God Requirements that Activity Day Girls can do!!)
Three artists were chosen for this exhibit because of their authentic paintings
of women showing them as real and everyday daughters of God.
These were a couple of my favorites:
 |
| Bringing Food by Brian Kershisnik |
 |
| Climbing Mother by Brian Kershishnik |
The paintings are just in one large room and so it doesn't take a lot of time
to stop by and see the beautiful artwork as well as the wonderful reminder of the sanctity and importance of women. It would be a great outing to do with your mom or family, or even as a YW group!
Here are the details and you can also check their website for more info:
