A Gentle Journey of Hymns and Pastel Art (Poynton Arts Festival)

A Gentle Journey of Hymns and Pastel Art is a quiet creative session where music and soft pastel art come together. Through live worship-inspired music and a guided finger pastel activity, participants are invited to slow down, reflect, and express what words cannot.

No art experience is needed. A peaceful space for all ages (suitable for ages 8+, accompanied by an adult). This is not about creating something perfect, but about being present, listening, and responding through colour and movement. Whether you come with faith, curiosity, or simply a need for stillness, you are warmly welcome.

Each ticket includes a full Pastel Nagomi Art kit for use during the session.
