The location makes you feel welcome and cared for. St Peter’s is hosting this event. This year we will focus again on the voices of Women in Iconography and perhaps new understanding. Insights shared through the feminine voice in iconography is a testament to the fact that there continues to be revelation happening in the mind of humanity.
The Egg Tempera Workshop will be held in the parish hall
