Dominican Institute for the Arts – Works of Art Portray the Issues of Justice and Peace
Dominican Institute for the Arts recently invited its membership and anyone connected to the Dominican Family to submit work on the Issues of Justice and Peace we committed to as part of the Dominican Sisters Conference.
On our website you will find works from Dominican Young Adults, Dominican Volunteers, Associates, our Sisters, and membership. Some works have statements of purpose seen with a scroll over. There are works on poverty, racism, water and climate issues, oil, migration, health, trafficking and more.
We invite you to go to our website and see the works of poetry, art, photography that were submitted. More works can be found in our gallery from our membership. A link is on our home page www.diartsop.org. We hope you will come and see.
GREAT BEND, KS – The Motherhouse in Great Bend had its own personal and very wonderful celebration for the 800th anniversary of the Dominican Family’s founding. The Dominican men from the Central Province Novitiate in Denver and their Director, Fr. Bob Keller, spent some fun and relaxing time with nearly 50 Great Bend area Dominican Sisters of Peace and Associates. The novices were on their way back home from their 4000+ miles of travel to Dominican sites east of Kansas. They told us what a great experience it was to meet priests, nuns, and sisters of the Family as well as to visit many of the parishes and institutions staffed by Dominicans.
