Classes and Retreats can be centered around the following:

• The Art of Prayer ~ Meeting quietly with God with a paintbrush, pencil, or hunk of clay in hand.
• Visio Divina (Divine Seeing) ~ Prayerful reflection using the arts.
• Creative Imago Dei ~ Exploring your God-given creativity as a spiritual pathway.

Individual Spiritual Direction ~ Available for artists and others who have a creative bent.

Spiritually Formative Arts Ministry ~ Create art communities and design an art gallery in your church, all based on experiencing God through individual and group creativity.

Emerging Artists ~ You are an artist and would love to have your work placed in area galleries - Vertical Creativity can help get you "out there" and seen.

Sacred Spaces ~ Create beautifuly artistic spaces where people can encounter God's presence in unique ways. Through our positions at Living Word Community Church, Deb Turnow (Director of Spiritual Formation) and myself (Director of Creative Arts) lead a team of artists and spiritual directors who transform our chapel into an experiential Sacred Space for the season of Lent. To see images of the 2008 and 2009 Sacred Spaces at LWCC, click here. We would love to walk you through the process of creating a Sacred Space in your church or organization - an intentional space where you can be still and listen for the quiet whisper of the Lord.
