Feast took birth over a shared meal on a train. The seed of its possibility took root among the VBWIM board and grew into a festival that many other hands nourished through their sponsorship, leadership, encouragement, presence, and support As a festival of word, image, and table, Feast offers space for women to preach in a variety of styles, emphasizes the richness and importance of imagery through its celebration of the arts, and sets tables for the communal experiences of shared meals.
Feast has become our signature event, and is now held the first Friday of May at a church. The first details about the upcoming Feast usually appear in March, and registration opens by April.
