December 9th, 2008- January 31st, 2009
Tuesday through Saturday: Noon to 6:00pm
Synchronicity Space and Fine Arts
106 West 13th Street
New York, NY
Synchronicity Space and Fine Arts in New York City's Greenwich Villagewill be hosting its 3rd annual exhibition showcasing the personal works of men in recovery who are facing their emotions and themselves through "art as therapy". Opening December 9th, 2008 and running through January 31st, 2009 this exhibition will include watercolors, pastels and charcoal drawings by the men of St. Christopher's Inn. Along with numerous other events, this art show inaugurates the centennial anniversary of one of America's true miracles - St. Christopher's Inn at Graymoor. Founded in 1909 by The Franciscan Friars of the Atonement, St. Christopher's Inn continues its mission to simply provide the very best of care to the homeless and chemically dependent who call on them for healing. The work chosen for this exhibition represents the acute awareness of men fighting for their lives as they go forward in a process of recovery, most of whom have never drawn, held a brush or endeavored to record personal moments of their lives. In addition, this year's exhibition will incorporate artwork from the staff of St. Christopher's Inn in an effort to demonstrate the degree of awareness and sensitivity to the process of recovery and how the collaboration of the men and the staff thrives on continuity.

Along with numerous other events, this art show inaugurates the centennial anniversary of one of America's true miracles - St. Christopher's Inn at Graymoor. Founded in 1909 by The Franciscan Friars of the Atonement, St. Christopher's Inn continues its mission to simply provide the very best of care to the homeless and chemically dependent who call on them for healing. The work chosen for this exhibition represents the acute awareness of men fighting for their lives as they go forward in a process of recovery, most of whom have never drawn, held a brush or endeavored to record personal moments of their lives. In addition, this year's exhibition will incorporate artwork from the staff of St. Christopher's Inn in an effort to demonstrate the degree of awareness and sensitivity to the process of recovery and how the collaboration of the men and the staff thrives on continuity.
