Festival inspires many in creative ministries
Amanda Thompson

Hundreds of would-be clowns, puppeteers, balloon artist and face painters descended on St. Andrews Baptist Church for the 15th annual Creative Ministries Festival.

Festival goers could participate in classes on clowning, drama, interpretive movement, puppets, face painting, balloon arts and more.

Attendees also enjoyed performances from comedians and dance instructors.

The conference ended with a showcase of various classes displaying their newly acquired skills in interpretive movement and other performing arts.

Established arts ministries could also be evaluated on their craft as well.

The next Creative Ministries Festival is scheduled for April 2007.
