Biennial Conference
A primary aim of Poiema Visual Arts is to bring artists together in community. A great example of this is our biennial art conference. This is a time when believing artists from all across Pennsylvania and its surrounding states have an opportunity to connect and grow. Comprised of a plenary speaker, various educational breakout sessions, a vendor hall, and a preview of local arts attractions; the goal is to individually and communally grow to be the Christian-artist-whole-humans God intended us to be.
Our last conference, “Finding Our Place: The Artist, The Church, and Placemaking,” was held July 13-15, 2023. Scroll down to find conference recap videos, event photos, and more.
Our next conference will be July 24-26, 2025, at Providence Presbyterian Church in York, Pennsylvania. Bookmark this page, follow us on Instagram, Facebook or sign up for our monthly newsletter for location, dates, keynote speaker, session presenters, early-bird information, and more.
