Welcome to the Black Barn Collective
an online community where art and faith, cultivated in community, take root, flourish, and grow
We are the Black Barn Collective.
We gather around virtual tables in our Online Black Barn hosted by Mighty Networks.
Black Barn Press is a non-profit organization that exists to call and cultivate a formative community of Christian artists and those who receive their art.
We seek to create and distribute good, true, and beautiful art and to foster healthy relationships between creators and those who receive creative offerings.
We Are
A community focused on listening well to God, to one another, and to works of art in all its many forms
A community rooted in Christian faith where makers and receivers of art care for the gift of creativity together
A community where we discover the joy of tending rather than consuming art
We Publish
Paper&String: a monthly digital care package from the Black Barn at Maplehurst. More than a newsletter, and more than a blog, this care package features articles, music, recipes, artwork, spiritual practices, reflections, and more.
We Gather Around Tables
Black Barn Workshops are held around wooden tables in our Pennsylvania Black Barn. Made in the image of a good and loving creator, we are all invited to co-create with God. These in-person gatherings at the Maplehurst Black Barn in West Grove, Pennsylvania celebrate the many forms our creativity can take, from writing to wreath-making.
Our Online Black Barn is a gathering place organized around virtual tables where we turn social media’s usual ways upside-down. Our online space is quiet, intentional, and shaped by weekly rhythms of reading, listening, offering, and celebrating.
