Christians in the Visual Arts (CIVA):

About CIVA:

Christians in the Visual Arts exists to explore and nurture the relationship between the Visual Arts and the Christian Faith.

Founded in 1977, Civa first met to consider the place of the Christian artist in the church and in the world-at-large.

The success of this initial gathering led Civa to establish a vision for activities which are now making an impact in a variety of ways.

It is our purpose to encourage Christian in the visual arts to develop their particular callings to the highest professional level possible; to learn how to deal with specific problems in the field without compromising our faith and our standard of artistic endeavour; to provide opportunities for sharing work and ideas; to foster intelligent understanding, a spirit of trust, and a cooperative relationship between those in the arts, the church, and society; and ultimately, to establish a Christian presence within the secular art world.
