A Tapestry of Faith

Online exhibit of art, artifacts, and stories of our community’s spiritual diversity

As the nation celebrates 250 years, and here at CTS, we are marking the 170th anniversary of our founding with the theme, “Daring Faith in Dangerous Times,” we hope to contribute to the braver, fuller, and more accurate story about religion in the U.S. by showcasing our diverse community here at CTS/Bayan. We have collected and curated a broad variety of pieces from within our community in an online exhibit for you to explore. With photographs, brief writings, and short videos, we hope to share ritual objects/practices, family histories, personal testimonies, religious spaces, American historical narratives, and other artifacts of lifestance diversity in the U.S. as embodied within the CTS/Bayan community.

Thank you for exploring this archive.
