KSL DOCUMENTARY — During the pandemic, leaders from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints requested a new vision for the foyers or entryways of Church meetinghouses – the art to reflect a deeper reverence for the Lord Jesus Christ.

Many Church buildings have new artwork, others are in the process of change.

A diverse group of Latter-day Saint artists are creating images that reflect the cultural and racial “peoples of the world.”

Get a behind-the scenes look at the Church’s art collection and how copies of those works are made and sent worldwide.

The new Primary General President has chosen art for her new office – why she finds that image sacred and why it is important that Latter-day Saint children experience art that moves them too.

And finally, The Center for Latter-day Saint Arts in New York City has realized a goal of an exhibition space with art that connects ‘ heaven and earth.’ We’ll see the diversity of art shown at this exhibit as well.
