ARTIST IN RESIDENCE / CREATIVE LITURGIST

SHANNON HINKLE

Shannon is a multi-disciplinary artist, Worship Leader and Creative Liturgist at Fremantle Church. Lee and Shannon moved in 2015 with their 5 children from the US. They continue to have 4 girls at home and have made their home in Fremantle. They came with a vision for Church planting and community engagement with creatives. It has been exciting to lead and help guide the work of Arts and Sessions of Fremantle Church. Shannon is privileged to help shepherd our body through art expression and music to be used in life of the church. She endeavours to engage the community throughout the year with stories, biblical texts and ancient church rhythms in art and music. Personally, she loves to express her love for life, story and colour through paint and glass. Come join Shannon for a cuppa and a chat in her studio where she’d love to hear your stories and share how Gods working in her life.

Ashleigh Isenbarger,

My style of photography is artful, intentional and laidback. I love subtleties, the nostalgia of film, and perfectly imperfect moments. I’m down for an adventure and always up for a challenge. Through my art, I transform these fleeting moments into timeless narratives.
