Betsy Lewis Art Event Productions presents . . .
"SHINING LIGHT ON THE DARK: The Gifts of the Dark Night of the Soul", a fall art event series this September, October and November 2009.
During the months of September, October and November 2009, Betsy Lewis Art Event Productions is assembling Rogue Valley visual artists, poets and experts in the field to take part in a fall series of art events exploring the "Dark Night of the Soul" and its role in healing and transforming human lives.
"The Dark Night of the Soul" was coined by the 16th-century Christian mystic, St. John of the Cross, who used it to describe spiritual crises. Now it has come to describe psychological ones as well which - once live through - can lead to better health and well-being.
A fine art show "The Gifts of the Dark Night" will kick off the art series at Talent Art Gallery located at 108 S. Market St. in Talent, Oregon, October 1 through October 31, 2009; the opening reception will be held October 3 from 5:30 - 8:30 p.m. Among the contributing artists will be Ron Hadath, Jim Thompson, Janet London and Betsy Lewis. Marla Estes, M.A. Transpersonal Studies, will present a lecture followed by a question and answer period entitled, "Embracing the Dark Night of the Soul" at Talent Art Gallery, October 3 at 6:30 p.m., as part of the opening of the fine art show, and on October 9, a poetry reading presented by the Rogue Valley Chapter of the Oregon State Poetry Associaton will be held at Talent Art Gallery from 7:00 - 9:00 pm. Featured poets are: Amy MacLennon, Amy Miller, Jay Schroder, Liz Vesecky and Gaea Yudron. Visit the Talent Art Gallery website at: www.talentartgallery.com
