New Seminary plans interfaith art show in Washington

We will be presenting an important art exhibit called “The Art of Faith.", at The National Press Club in Washington, DC, on March 9, 2009. The purpose of this exhibit is to demonstrate that art can play an important role in transforming conflict and building community.

Pope John Paul, II said, “Society needs artists, just as it needs scientists, technicians, workers, professional people, witnesses of the faith, teachers, fathers and mothers, who ensure the growth of the person and the development of the community by means of that supreme art form which is the art of education."

For this show, artists from various faith traditions will be asked to submit works depicting the core values of love, peace, compassion and community building. If you want to play a role in this important community building arts project, please contact Rev. Jay Speights by leaving a message on the form at the bottom of this page.
