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.

The Longest Day 2019: This is the day with the most light and is the day we fight! On June

Longest Day. Together, the strength of our light will outshine the darkness of Alzheimer's.

A Few Facts:

Worldwide, 50 million people are living with dementia.

The annual global cost of dementia is $818 billion in U.S. dollars.

The number of people living with dementia worldwide is set

to skyrocket to 75 million by 2030.

Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the

United States.

More than 5 million Americans are living with the disease.

More than 16 million family and friends provide care to

people with Alzheimer's and other dementias in the United

States.

In the United States someone develops Alzheimer's every 65

seconds.

In 2018, more than 16 million caregivers of people living with

Alzheimer's disease or other dementias provided an estimated 18.5 billion hours of

unpaid care, a contribution to the nation valued at nearly $234 billion.

In 2019, Alzheimer's disease will cost the United States $290 billion.

This number is projected to rise to more than $1.1 trillion in 2050.

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.
