(With H.J. Slider

This program will be live-streamed.

The rich artistic heritage shared by all Christians is an opportunity to learn from other traditions and can be a means to unify us in Christ.  Join artist, H.J. Slider, as she explores how the visual arts can bridge differences and communicate truth, goodness, and beauty.  This presentation is based on the landmark book, The Ecumenism of Beauty, and the role of visual arts, beauty and aesthetics in ecumenical exchange.
