The Story of an Icon

Joanna Tulloch is a poet, artist, and icon painter who lives in Oxford. She will talk about how she became interested in icon painting and will give a presentation of various hand-painted icons, some by her and others the work of Greek and Russian icon painters. The main focus will be on icons of the Virgin Mary (known as the Mother of God in Orthodoxy), including their history, characteristics, and meaning. This talk is part of our Volunteer Monthly Series and everyone, volunteer or not is welcome to attend.
