SPRING: Rebirth, Ritual and ReCreation
Spring has been celebrated throughout time and around the world as the season of renewal. From the baking of Easter Paska to the Passover Seder meal, from decorating eggs to creating art inspired by nature, from song and dance to drumming in the Spring Equinox, sacred and secular rituals connect us to each other and to the promise of Spring. The Lorain County Sacred Landmarks Initiative, Stocker Arts Center, and our programming partners are pleased to present an art exhibit and series of special events that celebrate Spring and its rituals in our community!
