Community invited to add colour to the community on Sunday

The Circle of Friends associated with St. Andrew’s in Picton invites you to participate in a community art event.
Together, we will paint six large madalas designed by our Artist-in-Residence David Rankine. David is passionate about how art can serve as a medium for creating healthier communities (davidrankineart.com) for more information on mandalas, go to www.standrewspicton.com
These mandalas will be designed to represent the themes of PEACE, JOY, JUSTICE, COURAGE, COMPASSION and HEALING. These themes reflect a common vision that we believe is at the heart of the creation. The mandalas will hang at St. Andrew’s for a month before being loaned out to other community organizations.
St. Andrew’s has a track record for organizing its life together around these themes. In 2009 it launched the Ten Thousand Villages store in support of artisans in the developing world. In 2011 it launched Reaching for Rainbows, a program that empowers vulnerable girls between the ages of six and 10. In 2016, it created a public labyrinth on our property.
Come and add some colour to these mandalas on Sunday, Oct. 2 at 1 p.m. at 31 King St. All materials will be provided. For more information, contact Lynne at 613-476-1167 or email rev.lynne@sympatico.ca
