body: BIOGRAPHICAL AND HISTORICAL NOTE In 1993, an Ad Hoc Committee for Quaker Arts presented a proposal to Philadelphia Yearly Meeting concerning Ministries of Celebration: A Fellowship of Quaker Artists. The clerk of the Committee was Minnie Jane Ham, an artist from Trenton Monthly Meeting. Her idea was to create a group of artists and supporters of the arts in Quaker communities to promote spiritual growth and understanding. The Fellowship of Quaker Artists was modeled after London Yearly Meeting's Quaker Fellowship of the Arts and worked to counter the long-standing idea in Quaker communities that the arts were detrimental to the practice of Quakerism. In 1997, the group changed its name to the Fellowship of Quakers in the Arts to include those who were supportive and interested but not themselves artists. The Fellowship organized exhibitions of Quaker art, supported independent exhibitions by Quakers, published a newsletter, and maintained a directory of Quakers artists across the country.
