An art practice can be a spiritual discipline, a way of seeing deeply into the heart of things. Works of art do not merely describe or interpret the world; they hold the potential to transform our relationship to it and to each other. Art calls us to move below the turbulent surface of our lives and witness the quiet, enduring Light that holds all things together.

The Quaker Arts Network at the Greenbelt Festival
The Quaker Arts Network, like the Religious Society of Friends at its bedrock, is an inclusive way of spiritual seeking and being in community, open to any individual regardless of faith, gender, age, ethnicity or other identity. With a focus on the Arts, we take forward the historical testimony of Friends to peace, equality, truth, simplicity and sustainability in the generation and celebration of creative work.
This could be a sentence or two about QAN's history and the people who make up its community]
The Quaker Arts Network (QAN) is a grassroots organization established in [DATE], registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (No. 1202268), and a Quaker Recognised Body.
We operate primarily in the UK and welcome the involvement of people from around the world.
QAN is run entirely on a volunteer basis. Its continuing operation rests on the free gifts of people's time and money; the latter covering the costs of digital infrastructure, publications, events and administering the charity (see the Annual Reports for a full accounting).
