The Creative Church Conference |
|
The Creative Church Conference is a forum for ideas and practices that can take churches and artists to new levels of glorifying God through the use of the arts. Imagine if the local church became the place in culture to experience creativity, transcendence, and beauty.
Hundreds of years ago churches were, in many ways, centers for these experiences. Somehow, over time we’ve abdicated that role. Now, many churches are moving in that direction again and there’s a growing desire to begin developing creative arts programs.
The Creative Church Conference will offer inspiration and ideas for churches and artists at all levels; whether you have a flourishing arts ministry, or are an individual artist looking to spark the arts in your church. |
