Saturday, August 13 at 3pm, the First Arts Committee will hold an afternoon reception for Philip Eubanks and the beautiful art he will be exhibiting here at First Pres! His love for nature is reflected in his work, and one of his favorite materials to work with is wood. He uses wood to construct shacks, churches, and animal structures, as well as frames for his artwork. Philip has a deep faith and a gratitude for living which is reflected in his beautiful creations.
PRIDE 2024!
first ARTS at first PRES
Our First Arts Committee works to emphasize the importance of art and proudly displays the work of local artists! If you're interested in exhibiting at First Pres, please email our office at [email protected].
Originally from Chicago, Dani Harris earned her BFA in Illustration from the Memphis College of Art and has turned her lifelong love of art into a career, first as a medical illustrator for St. Jude Children's Hospital and studio assistant to Memphis artist Alonzo Davis, then as a graphic and web designer for several local organizations including the Brooks Museum of Art. She first fell in love with figure drawing after taking a life drawing class at MCA and eventually started adding different layers to her drawings using paper and watercolor. Her body of work represents the results of what she calls her "art therapy".

We're excited to announce our new youth worship initiative, Kids Corner! On the first Sunday of each month, preschool and elementary aged children are invited to participate in a lesson and a fun activity immediately following Story Time. Afterwards they’ll return to worship and participate in communion with the congregation. Our next Kids Korner will be June 2 and we'd love to see you there!
