Event Details

 

Does every human being have an instant recognition of beauty when they sense it?  Next to our physical needs for life, isn’t our human relationship with beauty the most known to us of all? Could we even survive as a species without beauty? These are the kinds of questions the writer and poet, John Berry asks in An Argument for Beauty. Come spend an afternoon with John as he makes his case for the Divine Intelligence of Beauty at this live event. 


A Virginia native, and long-time resident of Winchester Va., John’s Argument stems from his series of dramatic re-imaginings of the Creation of the Universe, The Broken Poem and Other Strange Ideas About God. John will have these beautifully hand-crafted pocket books available at the event, including the new release of Vol. 4 featuring Gravity Has a Serious Talk with Water.
