A primary aim of Poiema Visual Arts is to bring Christian visual artists together through discipleship, education, & community. A great example of this is our biennial art conference. This is a time when believing artists from all across Pennsylvania and its surrounding states are invited to connect and grow. Comprised of keynote speaker, various educational breakout sessions, a vendor hall, and a preview of local arts attractions; the goal is to individually and communally grow to be the Christian-artist-whole-humans God intended us to be.

This year’s conference will take place on July 24-26, 2025, at Providence Presbyterian Church in York, Pennsylvania.
