Art & Spirituality: Light + Color, Saturday, January 10, 2015

9 am –3 pm, Sat. Jan 10, 2015

Stained Glass & Illuminated Manuscripts

Alma Thomas, an African-American painter known for her use of color said, “Color is life.” Bring a fresh look and light into your spiritual life through the color, symbolism, and richness of stained glass and illuminated manuscripts. Our art room becomes a modern day “scriptorium” as we investigate the history, significance, and beauty of light and color in both art forms. Once you look at some examples of each and meditate on the stained glass windows in the Chapel, you will spend the day creating your own inspired work on paper. Consider your favorite scriptures, poems, quotes or symbols that help you center yourself or pray. Then come have fun and fellowship with others on their faith journey using your sense of color and wonderment to create your personal work of color and light.
