The Creative Church Conference will offer inspiration and ideas for churches and artists at all levels; whether you have a flourishing arts ministry, or are an individual artist looking to spark the arts in your church.
Attendees can share during panel discussions and open forums. At the Indianapolis conference, the artists will completely design two Sunday services to conclude the weekend. At the Boise conference, the conference will wrap up with artist Dave Blakeslee giving a Sunday message while creating pottery.
It should be noted that there are many creative conferences that focus solely on musical worship in the church. While the Creative Church Conference includes and appreciates music and worship ministry, the main focus of the weekend is on integrating the rest of the arts–including visual art, film, poetry, drama, dance, and more–into the local church.
