Project Interfaith’s 2009 Interfaith Architecture Tour
This Year’s Theme: The Influence of Nature in Buddhist and Catholic Religious Art and Architecture
Sunday, May 17, 2009, 1:30-4:00 pm (Check-in begins at 1:00 pm)
Mount Michael Benedictine Abbey located at 22520 Mount Michael Road, Elkhorn, NE 68022
Join us for an afternoon exploring how nature has influenced and shaped religious art and architecture in the Catholic monastic and Buddhist traditions. Hear from speakers from Tinh Tam (the Council of Buddhist Study) and Father Daniel Lenz, an artist and member of the Mount Michael religious community. Then, tour the beautiful buildings and grounds of Mount Michael Benedictine Abbey to see a fine example of this in our community. The presentations and tour will be followed by a reception with light refreshments hosted by Mount Michael Benedictine Abbey.
This tour is open to the public and is co-sponsored by the Tinh Tam, the Archdiocese of Omaha, and the Omaha Chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), who will be offering CEUs to its members for attending. The cost to participate is $5 per person and is non-refundable. Pre-registration is strongly suggested.
Project Interfaith serves as a leader and resource on interfaith and religious diversity issues.
