For example, a group of High School freshmen and their mothers will be meeting throughout the year to discuss the topics of Culture Care by Makoto Fujimura and explore the questions using art. Each month will have the list of art supplies along with the chapters of the book to be discussed. Come join us! We are available to answer any questions and to get you started.

JULY 2019 PURPOSE BY DESIGN RETREAT-BLUE SKY DREAMS
For 10 years we have been joining Purpose By Design at a camp for teenage girls for a weekend of inspiration, motivation, skills of resilience, and listening art to allow them to hear from their Creator.
Each year The Maker's Space runs the ART WORSHIP portion of the retreat. We use art as a tool to help them slow down and listen to what God wants to tell them.
This year's theme was Blue Sky Dreams and each of the 30 participating teens did a pour painting and learned how to interpret art by a series of questions and observation and listening to what God wanted to show them. This year we set up an actual art gallery where the girls talked about their paintings and how it spoke to them about their Blue Sky dreams. Read more on the blog @BLUE SKY DREAMS
