Abstract
At the Unitarian Universalist Church of the Palouse(UUCP), emphasis is placed on the idea of community. This community stretches beyond the congregation, the city of Moscow, Idaho, and the greater Palouse region. The community of Unitarian Universalism encompasses all of humanity, and this is reflected clearly in the actions of the congregants at UUCP. The research conducted in this study shows the deep ties to the community in this congregation as those shared values and a communal emphasis on activism are expressed by way of artistic expression. In this reflective interpretation of an ethnography, workshops and interviews focusing on art and community were the starting point for a reflexive, honest portrayal of the communal connections of UUCP. By way of poetry, paintings, and drawings, the findings of this qualitative research study thematically point to the focus on connections within and beyond the congregation of UUCP.
