Cultivate Beauty Art and Film Festival

The Cultivate Beauty Art & Film Festival is part of an annual celebration started by Sojourn Community Church known as Kill Your TV / Cultivate Beauty Month. This is a month when members of Sojourn and the surrounding community are challenged to make space for beauty in their lives by turning off their TVs and engaging with something else – like a relationship, a creative task or a walk in the park. The idea is to put energy into cultivating something beautiful, something that lasts, something more satisfying than the shallow instant-gratification that fills most of our days. The Art & Film Festival serves as part of the month-long celebration, taking the opportunity to celebrate works of beauty that are emerging in the community around us.
