An artistic workshop for Christmas

A great symbol stands before us—life that has overcome death, the wood from the seed taken from paradise. This life, dying and rising again, is the Rose Cross.

Join us for a creative afternoon workshop of art and conversation, exploring Rudolf Steiner’s enigmatic Three Kings motif, created by Steiner in pastels for Christmas 1923. Join us online or in person in the Adelaide Hills for this Christmas gathering.

The Three Kings festival will be significant for our future, Steiner states:In the Rose-Cross we have the fourfold human being: in the Cross the physical human, the etheric human and the astral human, and in the roses, the Self. How do we connect the roses of the Christmas tree with the cross of Easter? And how do the Three Magi from the East play into this? What is Mary’s special role here?

Art-making is a way of knowing, of understanding through doing and creating. Working together, we seek to find answers to these questions, while preparing ourselves for the coming Christmas festival.

Who is the workshop for?

Fiona will lead participants through the process of building up the motif in colour, recommending colours and gestures, and providing expert guidance in how to create a beautiful, meaningful artwork to take home.

You do not need drawing/painting skills to enjoy this hands-on workshop.
