This month’s Featured Artists: Sara Gondwe
Art Gallery
Sara Gondwe, self-taught, mixed media artist, creates with scraped bits of crayons on canvas, then substitutes
an iron for a paintbrush -- melting, combining, and shaping the colors into a design. Followed by applying bright
acrylic paints, using the tip of the tube as the brush. The award winning artist moved to Charlottesville in 2013.
In her own words: "Art for me is about exploration, imagination and discovery. My purpose is to brighten, enlighten
and cause warm fuzzy, happy feelings for the viewers.
I was born in a small rural town in Beaver Dam, WI in 1949. I graduated from University of Wisconsin,
Madison with a BA in Philosophy and a Masters in Education with certification as a Reading Specialist K–12, and
collided with a wonderful human being, Derrick Gondwe, whom I married in 1971. A teaching position took us to
Gettysburg College in PA and I worked as a Reading Specialist with the local school district. Three more children
ensued. In the meantime I started the Gettysburg Area Literacy Council and was its first coordinator. Affiliated with
the International Reading Association I also started the Adams County Reading Council and was its first president. In
2004 I lost my best friend, my husband.
At the request of community leaders I was voted in as President of the Gettysburg Area NAACP in 2010, and
served for two years. At this time I moved to Charlottesville, VA and rediscovered my passion for art.

June is the month we celebrate
the fathers in our lives. The men who
have loved us, nurtured us and paved the
way for us to succeed in this world. I am blessed
with one amazing father, but I also claim many
wonderful father-figures who have supported me in
many ways. Take time this month to express your gratitude
to God for the men who have influenced you and helped to
mold you into the person you are today.
We will continue our Bible Study on Simon Peter all
month. Our author, Adam Hamilton, has helped shed new
insights into the “flawed but faithful disciple”. In the video
that accompanies our study, we have been able to visit the
sites where our scripture stories took place. Hamilton helps
divulge new insights into familiar stories by taking us to the
Holy Land. Won’t you plan to join us in our weekly
discussions? We have enjoyed putting our flawed selves in
the footsteps of Peter. We relate to his inadequacies and
strive to learn from his mistakes to become better
disciples. Our group meets each Tuesday at 10:00 in the
Wellness Center Conference Room. A study book is
available to read ahead of time in the library, or just stop in
to listen unprepared—no worries.
Blessings,
