S2602 Experiencing the Spiritual through Art

Class | Registration opens Monday, March 16, 2026 10:00 AM EST

Across cultures and throughout history, people have found the sacred expressed through art and have used creative works to inspire spiritual reflection and meaning. This presentation explores artwork from a variety of religious traditions as well as secular pieces, highlighting how art can evoke contemplation, connection, and transcendence. Participants will be introduced to practical ways of viewing and engaging with art more intentionally, encouraging deeper personal insight and a richer experience of the spiritual dimensions that art can offer.
