Wabi-Sabi is the Japanese art of finding beauty in the transient and impermanent. This retreat offers the opportunity to explore the similarity between the process of art and the process of prayer in an experiential way. Our felt experience helps attune us to the invitation of the God of Creativity. As it says in the Canticle of the Sun, “come dance in the forest, come play in the field.” Our time together will allow for our own creativity to flow, giving expression to each one’s awareness and experience of God present in the ordinary. Join us for this opportunity to “coincide with God”, discover and unleash the creative mystic in yourself, and express your soul through movement, art, writing, and circle sharing.
