"Icons: Windows to the Divine"
with Rev. Linda Hart and Caroline Blair
Icons have been used for centuries to offer individuals an image of the divine. We will explore a variety of ways to create images that help us see God in all: from nature, in objects, through symbols and our own creations. This course will centre around visual expressions, and include time for reflection and writing, as well as other creative activities. No special artistic skills are required, just an openness to explore in a variety of media.
Note: There are four alternative morning engagement groups for adults at summer school this year. Small Group Activities are the central expression of Religious Education at summer school: each person attending HSS is expected to participate in a closed workshop group which meets for twelve hours over the course of the week. These groups are at the heart of summer school and provide a safe environment for deep exploration and personal relating.
