5 – Day Byzantine Icon Workshop/Retreat
Praying and Painting the Mystery of St. Joseph
Fr. Damian Higgins, Iconographer, Abbot of Mt. Tabor

Using traditional techniques and materials, Father will guide participants as they paint an icon with egg tempera on gesso. Pope Francis instituted this year as the Year of St. Joseph, husband of the Theotokos,  foster-father of Jesus Christ, humble carpenter of Nazareth. No experience is necessary to paint this icon, and participants will have guidance throughout the workshop. All materials are provided by the leader.
Icons will be blessed at the close of the retreat. $125 (non-refundable) to register, included in the $700 cost of the retreat. Meals, lodging and snacks included.

Immaculate Heart is following CDC and the Washington Health Department’s COVID-19 guidelines to maintain a sanitized and safe environment for our retreatants and guests.  All formerly occupied bedrooms are completely sanitized before each check in.  Your peace of mind and safety are our top concern as you journey with God on our spiritual grounds.
