Join St. Damascus Gild for our first “Glimpse” event of 2026! We are thrilled to host this unique, hands-on painting experience—the first of many visual art workshops to come. While we are officially launching our nonprofit in December 2026 to prepare for a full 2027 season of sacred art events, we invite you to join us now for this special preview.

This afternoon is more than just an art workshop; it is a “glimpse” into our mission and an opportunity to reflect on our faith through creativity. The workshop will be led by experienced and faith-filled local artists who will guide you in creating art that glorifies God.

Art with a Higher Purpose

Every painting offered at this event is Christ-centered, designed to help you create a beautiful visual reminder of your faith. We are offering three original, pre-painted example designs to choose from, tailored to your comfort level:

• Beginner: Focused on simple, bold symbols of faith and vibrant colors (Age Recommendation: 4+)
• Intermediate: Introducing techniques for added detail, light, and depth. (Age Recommendation 8+)
• Advanced: For those looking to explore intricate textures and spiritual themes.

No matter which design you choose, our instructors have broken down the journey into a simple 5-step self-paced process. You’ll learn the basic building blocks of creating a masterpiece—from the first stroke to the final detail—at your own speed.
