“The exhibit does an exemplary job of the artist’s dilemma in bridging sacred and secular worlds as often they appear to be in direct conflict.”

The English poet, Gordon Sumner, queried, “Will you be my love upon the fields of barley? Many years have passed since those summer days…” Over the course of Bob’s art blogs, it has become common knowledge that I have an unabashedly amorous affair with the month of October–the most beautif...

“Water of Life” is a new exhibit exploring the intersection of environmental sustainability, water and human life. The exhibit is open every Sunday from noon to 3 p.m. between Sept. 11 and Nov. 20.

“Water is not simply a resource,” explains The Very Rev. Dr. Amy Welin, dean of the cathedral, on the choice of subject. “It is the source and cornerstone for all life. Access to clean water is a growing issue in many places around the world, including in our own front yard. The global water system connects people across cultures, political identities and economic structures.”

The global climate crisis has led to many religious leaders advocating for an ethic of environmental sustainability of water resources. “Water of Life” invites the Central Pennsylvania community into the conversation by asking:
• What are the practical implications of sustainable living in terms of justice and equitable access?
• In what way can regular people participate in the transformation of our environment into a healthy system?

The exhibit is open every Sunday from noon to 3 p.m. between Sept. 11 and Nov. 20. Special events include:
• Sept. 11, from noon to 3 p.m.: Harrisburg Gallery Walk
• Oct. 2, at 2 p.m.: Kristen Koch, program manager of Penn State Agriculture and Environment Center, will speak about how regular people can positively impact the environment through small-scale gardening.
• Nov. 13, at 2 p.m.: Michael Mehrazar from PennFuture will present “Water, Water, Everywhere.” Learn what’s in our water supply, its impact on human life and what we can do to improve upon it.
