Creativity and Faith: The Success of the Plein Air in Pomorie

For the second consecutive year, the "Saint George" Monastery in the town of Pomorie became a center of attraction for art and spirituality. The two-week charity plein air

"Doers of Good with Gratitude to God"
brought together over 40 children and young people, who immersed themselves in the magic of iconography and painting.

Training from the best

The participants had the unique chance to learn from a team of over 10 prominent artists, vocal pedagogues, and clergy members. The program included:

The focus was not only on painting but on character building and fostering virtues through every nuance and every note.

Results of the cause

Thanks to the hard work of the young artists, a large portion of the works were purchased by donors right at the beginning of the plein air. The organizers Neli Todorova, Darina Gilyova, and Valentin Georgiev reported a total amount raised of 3560.50 euros. These funds will support six children in need, with the process being monitored by the Municipal Enterprise "Social Services".
