Experience the ancient art of “writing” the Gospel with paint and prayer. Join this week-long, all- inclusive day retreat, led by renown iconographer, Theresa Harrison. Using JoSonja acrylic paints and 23 carat gold leaf, paint an icon of your choice together in sacred community at Grace Church, Bainbridge Island.
We begin each morning with prayers and Eucharist and spend the day in quiet meditation. Icon writing suits all abilities-no previous experience is necessary, yet those who have artistic experience find the process compelling. The cost is $450 and includes materials, snacks, and lunch. Space is limited so please save your place early.
Register HERE. For more information, please contact Kim Cockroft, Director of Faith Formation, at kim@gracehere.org.
“The joy of creating an icon in community is to experience and share the love of God. The end result, of God working in us and through us, goes far beyond the painting on the panel and into the realm of the mystery of our faith. Come join us and ‘fear not’ your ability, simply come open to love.” –Theresa Harrison
