Center for the Performing and Visual Arts
The Center is a venue for a variety of Cathedral arts programs. We believe that the arts enable everyone to encounter the holy and draw closer to the heart of God. The committee has produced several major and short plays, displayed art exhibits on the cathedral walls including artists with disabilities and young people, sponsored workshops in dance, and hosted dramatic readings and photography exhibits. Those interested in films can view them and discuss them with others at Second Saturday Cinema. Contact the Rev. Canon Richard Lief (619) 298-7261 x 356 or liefr@stpaulcathedral.org
