Lent Cross

If you are able to drop in to the St Johns building in Dumfries you will be able to see the latest art installation.

Andy Brook has crafted a cross for the Lent journey. Themes of nails and thorns contribute to a glass so heavily stained that it takes time and effort to find the light. If you sit in the right place at the right time though you find that the light shines though it, illuminating the colour.

This cross will be paired with another cross for Easter Sunday. We hope your journey through Lent is going well. If you are near Dumfries drop in! As many of you are not, here is a gallery of views of the lent cross.

You can find out more about this if you visit the blog Andy Brooke, the artist who was commissioned to carry out the project.
