Art Journaling I feel that art has something to do with the achievement of

stillness in the midst of chaos. A stillness which

characterizes prayer, too. —Saul Bellow

This retreat is designed to encourage and guide participants to let their inner creativity and inner wisdom emerge.

Through well planned art and journaling exercises, participants will have an opportunity to open themselves to the Spirit within. With no emphasis on product, they can work freely, letting the images and colors lead to new insights. Each session is guaranteed to be playful as well as prayerful.

Absolutely no art or writing skills are necessary. Participants need to bring only a childlike willingness to set aside inhibitions and to be delighted with the magic of color and the wonder of words.

I write to mend

those places that got

snagged, ripped or frayed

while being human,

with other humans....

~Erika Harris, "Why I Write,"
