“I appreciated everyone’s insight and honest comments. I thought many of the heartfelt conversations revealed a real need for open dialogue. I wonder how much of that would have occurred in a face-to-face meeting.”

—Rev. Bruce Frogge, pastor

 

 

Art and Healing

July 7-25, 2008
Facilitator: Cherry Moore, M.Div., MFA
12.0 contact hours

Faith Squinting, Love Reaching, Hope Walking art exhibit

Spirituality, Art, and Health art exhibit

What role does art play in spirituality and health?

To explore this topic of growing interest, seminar participants will be reflecting on two exhibits in the Online Learning Center art gallery: "Faith Squinting, Love Reaching, Hope Walking" by artist C.J. Phipps and "Spirituality, Art, and Health" by art historian Lynn Meckler. A third resource will be the art in an Oates Journal article, "Art and Healing: A Personal Reflection" by artist Cherry Moore.

 

Through an email discussion with the artists/presenters and with each other, seminar participants have the opportunity to reflect on the role of art in healing in light of their own experiences and these three resources.
