  • 1.  Arts and Ecumenism Symposium

    Posted 08-10-2017 03:42 PM
    I received this information today from Christy Haig, with the Community of Jesus, and passing it on here.   Sorry if the links do not work!

    On the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, the Mount Tabor Ecumenical Centre for Art and Spirituality presents an international symposium with sessions on art, theology, and ecumenism. The Symposium began in May in Paris, Strasbourg, and Florence, and continues this fall in New Haven (CT) and Orleans (MA).

    The final weekend of the Symposium in October 2017, in Orleans MA, will be the culmination of this exploration of sacred arts and ecumenism -- "ART IN CELEBRATION: The Word in Color, Action, Music, and Form" focusing on the creativity behind and expression in both the visual and performing arts. The Community of Jesus will host demonstrations of mosaic, fresco, and Gregorian chant; lectures and panel discussions; exhibits of contemporary sacred art by artists Susan S. Kanaga and Filippo Rossi; liturgies of the Divine Office and Holy Eucharist; and a fully-staged presentation of Vaughan Williams' opera, The Pilgrim's Progress, performed by the critically-acclaimed ensembles, Gloriae Dei Cantores choir and Elements Theatre Company, in the Church Of The Transfiguration on Cape Cod.
