Joel Pelsue, “This event continues to have extraordinarily talented Christians showing art from a Christian Worldview that is not only top quality but deals with relevant, powerful and provocative issues facing the world today. We don’t just accept any work- the work must be top quality. And we are excited to give the participants the opportunity to expand their careers by being in a show in Los Angeles.”
