Sacred Expressions: Paint, Pause, Pray ~ Afternoon
Art theme ~ Nativity Scene

Melissa Calderon & Myraed David

Afternoon Session: Saturday, November 5, 2022 2:00pm to 5:00pm

This is a meditational event through the expressional form of painting. The participants will follow a pattern and start with the same subject, but have artistic freedom and flexibility. This workshop will allow time for contemplative prayer using silence, music, scripture, and sharing as each artist creates their masterpiece. Everyone is welcome to join and all skill levels are invited. During this unique form of gathering, individuals will be able to connect with others on a spiritual level while creating art. Participants will be invited to display their finished artwork at the annual Nativity exhibit. We hope this event creates an opportunity to gather as a community and express love for Christ through painting & reflection. No artistic experience is required.
