A colourful space of restoration and hope

Plans to open an art studio in Southern Spain are well underway. Artists were able to touch deeper areas of the heart and spirit of North Africans through art. Now based in Southern Spain, the same artists saw the potential to reach out to the North African immigrant community with a message of hope in Christ, and thus promote healing between the different cultures. The art studio is open for artists and non-artists alike, a place where true community based on Christian values is built and lived out.

With the art centre scheduled to open at the end of May, every day is a flurry of activity. The property, ideally located in the centre of town, is slowly being transformed from a grungy, dark space to a fresh, hip and colourful place, full of light and movement. Once open, artists plan to offer affordable creative workshops and cultural events to the community. Artists can exhibit their work, and believing artists will have the opportunity to display their creations, inspired by the Creator.

Please pray for the in-house artists as they build this art centre. Pray that the centre would open in May as planned, and become a place of light, restoration and hope between cultures and to the community.
