Visions of Nature in Art: A Retreat on the Gunflint Trail
With Rev. Peggy Thompson and Sister Jacqueline Leiter, OSB
July 6 - 13, 2019
God the Creator has infused the world with a spirit of life and vitality, leading us to wonder and calling us to ever greater attention. Artists know this sense of wonder and practice sharpening their skills of attention so that they, too, might communicate God’s presence through their mediums. Steal away to Northern Minnesota and join painters Peggy Thompson and S. Jackie Leiter OSB for a soulful experience of nature and hands-on forms of reflection. The week-long experience takes place at Peggy’s family cabin, nestled between lakes 45 minutes outside of Grand Marais. For more information, email thompsonmargaret413@gmail.com.
