Attention BUUF Members!

Do you have ideas about the Sanctuary space? Fellowship Hall? Thoughts on what could be improved? Any opinion on the appearance of BUUF? Are you a voting member? Then the Aesthetics Committee is for you!

The newly formed Aesthetics Committee needs members! This committee is charged with assuring the design integrity of the Fellowship building and property. It is the committee’s job to manage the visual environment at BUUF so that it enhances the enjoyment, the purpose, and the utilization of the spaces that we occupy. It will serve as the guiding body for treatment of building and property surfaces, artwork, displays, fixtures, paintings, wall hanging and furnishings. The committee will meet on an “as needed” basis. Current members are Julie Williams, Tom Hackley, Harvey Johnson and Hilary Johnson. There is no committee chair at this time. That means it could be you!

If interested, please send an email to office@BerrienUU.org
