This fourth annual retreat on spirituality and the arts will engage us in the process of spiritual growth by examining various ways in which the arts move us on our journey toward the Kingdom of God.  Through the medium of the arts, we will enhance our intuitive connection to God, experience God’s presence in liturgy, and seek new insights through artistic projects. The program this year will feature fresh topics and approaches that will appeal to both new and returning participants.
