The Search For Salvation - A Study of Christian Art
with Don Little

This year I will present an historical outline showing how early Christian artists attempted to illustrate the life and times of Jesus Christ in man's continuing search for salvation.

Christian Art was the dominating genre in painting for centuries and still is a primary subject for many of today's artists. Their sole source of reference in the creation of their art was the New Testament Bible. This is a study from the history of Christian art. We will look at these works based on Historical evidence and will view them in the context of their own times.

Classes will be held for 5 nights with a choice of two locations...
