Painted Prayers

LOCATION: Room M114

Creativity isn’t something we learn, but something we remember and by reconnecting with that memory we access the sacred placed in all of us by the Divine Creator. There is a long history of the connection between art and prayer. We see the intertwined journey of the two in the Monastic tradition as well as in the Tibetan practice of creating Mandalas which blend the creation of sand paintings with ancient spiritual practices. Creativity can be an opportunity to illuminate our connection to God, to Creation and to each other. Reflecting on all parts of creation as inspiration, this session is a more reflective and introspective time, allowing space to create your own prayer through the art of contemplative painting. Each session limited to 25 participants.
