Art
"he has filled him with divine spirit, with skill, intelligence, and knowledge in every kind of craft, to devise artistic designs, to work in gold, silver, and bronze, in cutting stones for setting, and in carving wood, in every kind of craft. And he has inspired him to teach..."
Exodus 35:31-34
St Mary's Episcopal Cathedral is filled with art of all kinds, as well as host to various temporary exhibitions and participatory workshops. We also have the famous Song School murals, by Phoebe Anna Traquair (1852-1936). Finally, our artist-in-residence, Jonathan Baxter, leads A+E, our partner organisation focussed on art and ecology in the broadest sense.
