Art, Vocabulary of the Soul

April 27 & 28, 2012

Throughout Christian history the arts have been central to Christian worship.  They are an avenue in which many find a close connection to God.  In this Friday and Saturday workshop we will explore the connection between art and faith.  This is a hands on workshop that will include both teaching and our own creating, and in our creations we will have the opportunity to both give and receive.  This workshop is for artists, would be artists, and for those who are curious about art and faith.  Students will be encouraged to create in the art of their choice -- painting, writing, sculpture, etc., and instruction and supplies for water color and drawing will be provided for those who desire it.

Workshop Presenter: Artist Julie Drew.  Cost $75 per person, includes Saturday Lunch.

Date : April 27 & 28, 2012

Schedule  : Friday 7 - 9 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m. - 3 p.m.

Registration online is being done on the Urban Sanctuary website.
