Don't Miss Friday: 
Join us this Friday morning at 10:15 AM in the Lakeside Restaurant as Paul LeValley presents a fascinating slideshow from his book In His Own Image Created He Them: Nude Illustrations of Bible Stories.

In addition to familiar figures like Adam, Eve, David, and baby Jesus, you’ll discover lesser-known characters such as Isaiah, Susannah, Judith, and the fishermen of Lake Galilee.

This is your chance to enjoy a quick, entertaining, and eye-opening art history lesson.

Following the slideshow, Paul will host a book signing.
