Art has always been a language of faith. Long before words, devotion and prayer were expressed through what people created with their hands. These creative worship classes invite you into that tradition, where creativity becomes a form of worship and faith is explored through reflection and expression. Led by Pastor Jeff Tally, each session is welcoming, guided, and designed for anyone seeking a meaningful, hands-on way to connect. This class will be facilitated by student art teacher Olive Cooper to hone and develop her skills toward potential careers in teaching and art. Create with purpose. Leave inspired. During This Session We Will Learn how to work with Clay: The Crown of Thorns Explore the Crown of Thorns working with air dry clay. This class focuses on tactile presence and reflection, allowing participants to meditate visually on sacrifice, grace, and redemption while creating a powerful, personal artwork. Come as you are. Includes all materials. No art experience required. 2-Hour Classes with Suggested Donation: $20, with gratuities for student teachers appreciated.
