SPRINGBORO, PA — The Eastern American Diocese of the Serbian Orthodox Church will hold its first-ever iconography camp October 13–18 at St. Sava Shadeland Monastery, with the blessing of Bishop Irinej.
Led by master iconographer and theologian Fr. George Popovich, the program will welcome both seasoned and emerging iconographers from across the U.S. for a week of prayer, hands-on training, and theological reflection. Participants will join in daily services, classes, and peer feedback sessions, with practical work including painting the monastery church’s altar.

A full schedule and more details are available on the Eastern American Diocese website.
