“Unless these things are appreciated artistically they are not appreciated at all.” G.K. Chesterton
The retreat will be a day full of contemplation, talks, discussion, observational and imaginative drawing and sharing some simple food. There is no need to be an accomplished artist to enjoy the day, even those who think they can only draw a stickman will find a day of calm reflection and fellowship.
"The Joy of Limits” is led by Sr MaryAnne Francalanza, a Faithful Companion of Jesus and director of the FCJ Centre for Spirituality and EcoJustice, and John Paul de Quay who is an illustrator and director of the Ecological Conversion Group charity.
In case you missed us earlier this year, we are excited to offer a second opportunity to explore the materials from our debut ‘Art of Limits’ retreat held in February.
Basic art materials will be provided on the day. Please feel free to bring your own dry media, pens or watercolour equipment if you wish.
Refreshments included.
A simple vegetarian lunch will be provided. Please let us know of any dietary requirements (we can only cater for gluten free and/or dairy free) by emailing: chee@theecg.org
If you would like to enquire for a subsidy please email: chee@theecg.org
