Spring Faith Festival
13 Mar
to 16 Mar
The Spring Faith Festival, organised by The Centre for Reconciliation, University of Lincoln Multi-Faith Chaplaincy, Lincolnshire Faith Council, and Lincoln BIG, will welcome people from across Lincolnshire to a series of exhibitions, interfaith walks as well as a celebration of Lincolnshire’s diverse faiths through art and music. Held from the 13th to 16th March, the theme of the festival will be ‘Hope and Resilience in turbulent times’.
Over the four days there will be a faith exhibition in the Waterside shopping centre, demonstrating different faiths. The faith and diversity embroidery banner will be on display, showing the richness of Lincolnshire’s faith and cultural communities.
A Faith Trail will be taking place all week in Lincoln. This is an opportunity to answer some questions, while visiting different places of worship from the Cathedral to the Mosque.
Thursday 16th is the main festival day and will be held in the Engine Shed from 10am-8pm, starting at 10am with an opening speech. Throughout the day there will be performances and a programme of speakers/talks. There will be a marketplace of local businesses and a food court area with food available for purchase, as well as a quiet space and a craft corner.
In the evening 4-8pm there will be workshops such as yoga, meditation, mandala making, and henna painting. There will be food available. From 6-8 pm there will be closing speeches from key speakers and the day will end with interfaith prayers and readings.
