Sacred Art and the Journey Toward Justice

Friday, March 3, 2023 12:00 pm EST

Join the Medieval Institute and the Center for Spirituality at Saint Mary’s College for the third in our webinar series on pilgrimage – Pilgrimage for Healing and Liberation. Sacred Art and the Journey toward Justice will consider the sacred art of pilgrimage routes and contemporary iconography. How do icons facilitate an encounter with the divine and with the beloved neighbor? In whose face do we see God? Artist Kelly Latimore joins us to discuss inclusive representation and Black-Brown iconography as a subversive element within the Christian tradition.

Pilgrimage for Healing and Liberation is co-sponsored by the Department of Africana Studies, the Department of Theology, Program of Liberal Studies, Cushwa Center for the Study of American Catholicism, Ansari Institute for Global Engagement with Religion, and the Notre Dame Initiative on Race and Resilience.
