Beyond Words: An Icon Retreat 

Monday, February 6, 9am through Friday, February 10, 5pm, 2017 

Led by Diane Hamel

***This Program is full, please sign up to be put on the waiting list***

Icons are doorways to the sacred; a stylized art form that is prayed into being.  
Our 2017 icon is, “Protection of the Mother of God” on a 12x12 panel based on an icon from Gabriel Toma Chituc.  

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced artist, writing an icon with celebrated artist Diane Hamel is a richly rewarding experience. The retreat week will be spent in prayerful learning as you create a beautiful and meaningful icon, with experienced direction, that you can take home and enjoy.

Here’s how one retreatant recapped the experience had by many:

“I was able to center myself and grow my knowledge of and skill with iconography.” 
 

The five-day retreat includes four nights/5 days in a private room with bath, all meals, instruction and materials. Guest rooms are available before and after the planned retreat for $69 per night, including meals. Arrangements for any additional accommodations can be made during registration. Spaces for this annual favorite are limited and fill early - register today!
