The Power of the Cross in Art

The cross is the pre-eminent symbol of Christianity.

This interactive and engaging day, led by Marguerite Hutchinson, looks at some of the different ways the cross has been represented by famous (and not so famous) artists through their art, both in different Christian traditions and in different historical times.

The day also includes a variety of songs performed live on acoustic guitar. Each song has been carefully curated to engage with the various themes. Guests are actively encouraged to join in!

A gentle, entertaining and informative event with space for reflection, response and music.
