Artist's Roundtable for Wandering Heart (Webinar Recording)

On March 24th, 2024 (Palm Sunday), we hosted our first ever Artist’s Roundtable event. In this webinar, each of the 5 artists who created art for our “Wandering Heart” Lent series shares more about her process, inspiration, and medium. In the webinar, we also engaged with questions and responses in the chat.

If you crave more conversations around art and faith, this webinar is for you. If you’ve followed our Wandering Heart series and want to peel back the curtain to learn more about the backstory and process, then we hope you enjoy this recording of the conversation.
