48th ABS Annual Conference

In a world characterized by rapid change and connectivity, the intersection of art and culture is more important than ever, offering profound opportunities for dialogue, understanding, and transformation. In recent messages, the Universal House of Justice has stated that the “Baha'i world has experienced a significant advance at the level of culture” and encourages Baha'is to draw “on the power of the arts.” This panel of practicing artists will explore where the world seems to be at this stage and how the arts might play critical roles in community building, global civilization, advances in universal education, equality, and peace-making efforts.
