SPIRITUALITY and CREATIVITY WORKSHOP (A three-day workshop)

Join us for this three day interactive exploration of the connection between art and our spiritual lives. Drawing from his years of experience as an Episcopal priest, painter, and writer, Chip Bristol will discuss how art has helped him grow spiritually. Each class will focus on different methods of artistic/spiritual exploration. From clay (air dry) to mosaics, drawing, painting and writing, you’re sure to be awakened and inspired! Bring a friend to this special event. We are so honored to have Chip in the Studio to share with us his story and journey.

Chip spent most of his career as a school chaplain and head of school. With a Masters in Divinity and a Masters in Fine Arts, he has used the connection between spirituality and creativity to create books, devotionals, and wonderful works of art and is passionate about helping  others join the two in their own lives.
