 The schematic design phase for the "American Sanctuaries" traveling exhibit has been completed.
“American Sanctuaries” will examine the stories of eight American sacred spaces representing a diversity of religious histories and traditions. Anchored by exhibit areas evoking each of the spaces, the content explores the struggle for religious freedom in the United States through these sanctuaries, built by minority religions as they carved out a place for themselves in our nation. Within each area, elements of each space’s architecture are recreated. Content about the space’s history, people, and religious traditions will accompany the design elements.
