TO OUR PATRONS

The work of Cathedral Arts has become a valued thread in the social fabric of our city. Our mission is to elevate and share the best of human creativity, from wherever it emerges. In celebrating the endowed diversity of humanity, the arts inevitably give voice to those who endure the scourge of oppression. Seeds of hatred, fear and division are too easily sown among us again and again, bearing only the fruits of destruction. We are taught that failure to act for the common good distances us from each other and from our Creator. Christ provided guidance for how we should proceed in the Golden Rule, the Parable of the Good Samaritan and the new commandment to “love one another.” We pledge to do our part in this important work through our programming and featured artists, as we lean into a “yet more excellent way” (1 Corinthians 12:31). To quote Martin Luther King, Jr., “If we cannot do great things, we can do small things in a great way. Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle.”
