HeART Gallery /
MakerSpace
HeART Gallery and the MakerSpace are ministries of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, with a mission to engage the community in discussion for spiritual thought, and find inspiration for daily life through art, music, food and special events.
Through collaboration with downtown agencies, businesses, non-profit organizations, and local arts groups, HeART Gallery/MakerSpace reach out and bring people together through the arts.
We offer an environment where all people can experience the love of Christ through the gifts of artists, crafters, writers and musicians, that our eyes may be open to the deeper love of God and the gifts of the community around us. Our events are varied: missional, creative, entertaining, reflective, or healing. Come and experience HeART Gallery and the MakerSpace!
