St. Edmund's Retreat Center, 1 Enders Island, Mystic, CT 06355

The Holy Family is a beloved image for many - offering a picture of the vocations of father, mother, and child.&nbsp; Saint Joseph was given the task of protecting Saint Mary and baby Jesus in the scriptures from King Herod, being told in a dream to take them to safety in Egypt during the Martyr of the Innocents.&nbsp; Saint Joseph serves as a model for both fatherhood and adopted fatherhood.&nbsp; This image is a wonderful piece to display in the home.&nbsp; We can see their example of family and model our own families.&nbsp; Joshua 24:15c KJV "&nbsp;but as for me and my house, we will serve the&nbsp;Lord."
"Oh, blest the house, whate'er befall,
Where Jesus Christ is all in all!
A home that is not wholly His --
How sad and poor and dark it is!"
Oh, Blest the House - Christoph Carl Ludwig von Pfeil 
This workshop will be a four layer technique illustration of the Holy Family in watercolor. Students start with a tracing of the original icon outline.&nbsp; We apply many layers to capture the depth and dimension, applying layers of red below the halos and gold background for warmth and shine.&nbsp; The painting itself follows a system of local color, shade, and light.&nbsp; The final image has golden accents.
For the class, students will produce a watercolor image with depth, dimension, and beauty to adorn the home or give as a gift on 14 x 11 paper.
All materials and tools needed to complete an icon are provided. Students should arrive with basic brush skills, a familiarity with the color wheel, and some experience mixing colors.
This week-long workshop begins with check-in at 4:30 PM on Sunday night, followed by dinner at 5:30 PM for students and instructors. Dinner will be followed by a workshop introduction and conference, which ends at 8:00 PM. You are welcome to attend daily Mass at 9 AM. Hands-on instruction begins Monday morning after Mass. The workshop concludes Friday at 1 PM.

Rustic-chic private farm venue in scenic Stonington, CT 

Deans Mill Farm 

Built in the mid-1700s as a functioning livestock farm, Deans Mill Farm has gone through an evolution in recent decades. A full renovation of the historic buildings and rejuvenation of the surrounding 70+ acres has made the property into the incredible venue it is today. Deans Mill Farm now operates primarily as a private event space and five-room bed and breakfast tucked down a private road in Stonington, Connecticut. It shares its property with Dragonfly Equestrian Center and is home to dozens of horses. On the property lies meadows, hiking trails, beautiful fields and Dragonfly Disc Golf. The property can be rented for weddings, birthday parties and other special events. Additionally, the bed and breakfast can be rented by the room or reserved in its entirety for complete privacy. The Farm has the ability to host small private indoor events for up to 50 guests in the Farmhouse. Outdoor tented events are our specialty, with numerous locations on-site that are picturesque for your celebration. Outdoor tented celebrations can accommodate up to 250 guests.
