 Cumberland
Arts at Cumberland First Baptist Church exists to promote the
appreciation of and participation in the arts within the Cumberland
community and beyond. Through the full range of performance and visual
media, we aim to lift the spirit and deepen the experience of beauty and
delight at the core of our lives. Cumberland Arts is a ministry of
Cumberland First Baptist Church, initiated in 2003. The charge of
Cumberland Arts is to provide quality artistic experiences in
combination with support of local and global mission. Through mission
collaboration with groups ranging from our local C.O.M.E. ministry, to
the Lighthouse Children’s Ministry of Tallin, Estonia, to the Edna
Martin Christian Center, Cumberland Arts invites audiences to delight in
artistic beauty while making a difference in the world around them. Over
its five years of existence, Cumberland Arts has hosted such groups as
The Indianapolis Children’s Choir, The Irish Airs, Theatre Non Nobis,
Celtic Motion, the Key Strummers, IndyVoiceWorks, and the Whole Person
Steel Drum Orchestra. Cumberland Arts has also held two arts festivals
for the community.
The 2007-2008 Season
will include benefits for our Suburban Eastside Pastoral Counseling
Ministry and Medical Service Project Honduras. For more information
