Matt Brinton 

A creative writer, poet, fine artist, community worker, and person of faith.

Matthew is very passionate about his Christian faith, and seeks, through his art, to give people a reason to hope and find meaning and purpose in their lives. He is not afraid of creatively addressing pertinent issues through his art. His overall artistic mission is to connect people to the "highest good" and to help them find their higher calling in life.

Matthew is currently a student at BCC, an employee of Guido's Fresh Marketplace, a volunteer for the non-profit Manos Unidas, and a regular congregant of Greater Grace Church of the Berkshires. Through all of these outlets he has been able to sow seeds of creativity and faith which he hopes will have a positive impact in the world.

Matthew seeks shelter under the wings of "the highest" and finds it hard to breathe when he comes out from under that shelter. His desire is that others will experience the peace and safety he experiences while under that shelter.

When a person truly finds the reason for why they were born, they experience the greatest miracle of all and they shine a pure undiluted light on all those around them. Matthew doesn't claim to be one who has fully entered into that light, but one, who, in his mess of imperfections, keeps on trying to enter. May he one day enter it and may all those he is trying to help enter, enter too.
