    An event from the Knights of the Southern Cross Victoria to bring together Catholic men and women of all ages from across the south-east suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, several times a year. The aim is to inspire and strengthen Catholics by providing ideas and inspiration for renewal by drawing on the truth, beauty and goodness of the Catholic faith.

    The twenty-eighth face-to-face event (held at the Notting Hill Hotel on Monday September 9, 2024) featured Tommy Canning, an artist from Scotland, spoke on Sacred Art in the Catholic Church.

    It has been said that 'beauty will save the world'.

    Tommy Canning is artist from Scotland who has spent a lifetime creating beautiful, sacred art that directs people heavenward.

    Thanks to John Canavan and the Divine Mercy apostolate he is visiting Australia for a short time to spread the message of Divine Mercy.

    Tommy Canning’s art is inspired by the great masters such as Michaelangelo, Raphael and Caravaggio. He draws on their legacy to create a bridge between the old and the new. Taking to heart the words of Pope John Paul II: “It is up to you, men and women who have given your lives to art, to declare with all the wealth of your ingenuity that in Christ the world is redeemed…” (Letter to Artists, 1999)

    An initiative of the Knights of the Southern Cross Victoria to bring together people of all ages from across the south-east suburbs of Melbourne each month. Our aim is to inspire and strengthen Christians by providing ideas and inspiration for renewing the Church by drawing on the truth, beauty and goodness of the Catholic tradition.
