Silent Movies with Walt Strony
“The Kid Brother” includes scenes filmed on boars harbored on Catalina Island, Calif.
Stay tuned for the next presentation of Silent Movies with Walt Strony!
Walt Strony loves to share his passion for silent film with the people of the Sierra Nevada foothills. Each of the films presented features a great actor of the silent era. Walt’s music evokes the emotion and action you see on-screen. It’s truly a remarkable and unique experience! We are truly blessed to have this opportunity in western Nevada County.
PEACE Lutheran Church has been offering these unique performances to the community since 2016.
All donations benefit the PEACE Organ Fund.
Art – God’s gift of love for all people
Arts @ PEACE demonstrates our congregation’s love of music and love of our community. We believe God gave us music to celebrate, inspire and transform ourselves and our world. Through Arts @ PEACE, we share that precious gift with our community.
Music offered by staff and guest musicians fills our beautiful and acoustically splendid space!
Admission to MOST events is by donation. All donations benefit the PEACE Organ Fund and are tax deductible. A free wine-and-cheese reception follows the concert.
Events in the course of the year include organ concerts, silent movies with live musical accompaniment, art shows and wine tastings, and more.
Many events feature the internationally renowned theater organist Walt Strony. Walt performs on his own Walt Strony Signature Series organ. It has four keyboards and the sound of a full orchestra!

God gave us the arts to lift us up!
Arts @ PEACE offers high-quality cultural events to western Nevada County. PEACE Lutheran Church enjoys a central location within the newly created Grass Valley-Nevada City Cultural District. In that context, we eagerly share our many blessings in music, cinema, art and other cultural gifts with our neighbors!
We offer most presentations by donation. For many events, you can enjoy a free reception afterward. That’s because we believe our neighbors need fellowship! People like lingering over wine, cheese and other snacks and beverages.
Donations welcome
We welcome donations of any amount! If you feel so moved, please do give as you can. Any gifts will benefit the PEACE Organ Fund. We are raising money to buy a new organ to replace the aging one you hear in our Sanctuary. (Imagine using a 30-year-old computer! That’s basically what we have now.)
