Hexaemeron: Non-Profit Organization - Workshops (491 words)
Tuition of $625 includes lessons in icon writing, all materials necessary to complete an icon, a detailed instruction manual, and prototypes.
Icons make vivid to us the triumphant nearness of "those who have fought the good fight and have received their crowns." Icons reveal to us the on-looking ministries of angels who assist us in our earthly travail and our struggle against the invisible powers of darkness.
Students receive intensive instruction in the language of iconography from the perspective of the iconographic canon and traditional Orthodox Church teaching on the practices of prayer and silence.
