In this workshop pupils will learn about Icons, their purpose, meaning and significance in worship. After learning about the composition and main types of icons pupils will design one of their own, incorporating the appropriate use of subject matter, line and colour.

At the end of the workshop each pupil will be given a facsimile of the Vladimir, Mother of God of Tenderness, icon similar to the one in the Lady Chapel.
