Biography, Experience, Current
Projects and Fee Schedules
Lucy Snyder specializes in custom-designed textiles used as
seasonal wall hangings and/or permanent installations in worship
spaces throughout the United States. Her twenty-five years' experience
as a liturgical professional and artist provide the expertise necessary
to collaborate with church communities. This includes initial consultation,
education, design process, fabrication, and installation
.In addition, Lucy has been highly successful in mentoring congregational
artists in the creation and fabrication of their own projects. Her
catechetical background and knowledge of Christian symbolism are
the basis of her unique approach to the design process.
Lucy believes there are three major priorities in any project. The
first is to connect with the community and to listen to their needs,
goals, and history. The second is to work for creative consensus
in the project. And, thirdly, she strives to incorporate any and
all traditional elements of the community in her designs.
"I want the community to be able to find themselves, and the Lord,
in their worship spaces, and make that mysterious, but profound,
connection we call faith. If my work helps them to make that special
connection to God, then I am using the talents He graced me with,
and I am joyful."
Lucy has completed wall hangings for churches in New York, Florida,
and Maryland, among others, and offers complimentary initial consultation.
Her fee schedule is based on the size and complexity of the project;
payment terms are negotiable.
