Art in the Dark: An Advent of Hope with David Gungor

The Brilliances David Gungor will be at The Well December 11 for an intimate gathering that will include conversation about anxiety, loneliness, division, community, creativity, and art. He will play excerpts from the album and talk about the fractures in our society and our relationship, and the journey toward one another (rather than away from each other) that t is needed during these times. We will close the night with some Christmas sing-along time. You can be part of this conversation. We hope you will be.

The new album was created in partnership with Biola University Orchestra and Chorus.
This suite, World Keeps Spinning: An Antidote to Modern Anxiety, asks the question, Is this the end of the world? It seems like the end is always around the corner. From ecological disaster to the presidential impeachment process to international discord, bad news is all around. It is hard not to have a new emotional baseline rooted in anxiety. Existential dread is at our throats.

Advent, a season in the Christian year, is a time of preparation and waiting for something better, two difficult things to do when the world seems to be spinning out of control. In this time of waiting - in the dark of December - perhaps we can find the space needed to slow down, to take deep breaths, and to find our way into communities of creativity and belonging.

As always, all are invited to our events regardless of ability to pay. If you need a scholarship, email us at thewellqueenanne@gmail.com

This event is co-sponsored by Campus Ministries at Seattle Pacific University.
