How do You do Artist Transformation?

  • Comments Off on How do You do Artist Transformation?

I have been asking David Arcos, worship arts director at :: MOSAIC ::, similar questions. He’s had some great responses. What a great place:

Q: How do you organize your Artists Retreats?

A: We created our time around

Creativity

Community and character

Fri. night- launched our teams who each had a project to create by the end

of the retreat.

Sat. explored mediums of art we never tried before through workshops

Sun- worked on our specific craft and created an explosive worship service

on sun. night.

Mon- shared what God did.

Q: How do you do Artist Transformation?

A: Well that is a great question “how do you do Artist transformation?” let me know if you find out. Just kidding…

We do ministry together

We put character over craft in dealing with those in our leadership base who shape the ethos of the teams.

When our leaders are healthy and seeking God, we see breakthrough artistic expression and deep community. When we are not on our game we see this break down at every level.

In terms of momentum. We create original productions every week in our

celebration services. This keeps us going. Without it we would be like a

football team that practiced without ever playing the game.

I realize this is simplistic but I hope this helps.
