Icon Painting
7th December 2025 – 14th December 2025
Facilitator: Deacon Nikita Andrejev
Join Deacon Nikita Andrejev this December for a unique opportunity to study with one of the principal instructors of the Prosopon School of Iconology. Guided by the ancient tradition of icon painting—often described as a ‘pilgrimage in paint’—you’ll explore the profound image of the Holy Mandylion: the Face of Christ “Not-made-by-Hand.” Whether you’re a beginner or continuing your journey, this meditative practice blends sacred art, technique, and reflection in a supportive, peaceful setting.
Secure your place on this course by Friday 21st November.
Event time: 7th December 2025 4:00pm – 14th December 2025 4:00pm
