Overview
I am excited to propose a unique art workshop series at Trinity Episcopal Church, Statesboro, designed to welcome participants of all ages and skill levels. These workshops will foster creativity, community, and spiritual reflection by exploring mixed media art through the lens of our shared faith.
Vision
Art is for everyone. Whether you’re a seasoned artist or just curious, this workshop will meet you where you are-helping each participant express their faith and personal story through accessible, playful art-making. Together, we’ll transform everyday materials and cherished objects into meaningful works of art that celebrate our spiritual journeys.
Workshop Highlights
All Ages & Abilities Welcome: Classes are designed to be inclusive, engaging children, teens, adults, and seniors alike.
Flexible Scheduling: I will work with the parish to find the best times and spaces-whether in a church classroom, the parish hall, or even outdoors under the pavilion for plein air painting. My availability is adaptable, and currently we have decided to meet on Friday evenings 5-7pm.
Faith-Centered Creativity: Each session will weave together art techniques and faith-based reflection, encouraging participants to find spiritual meaning in their creations.
