St Asaph's Cathedral is stunning
What a stunning place tor the Open to All Exhibition. St Asaph’s is the smallest Cathedral in Wales in one of the smallest cities. Yet, the welcome is huge and the open arms for anyone and everyone is an enormous hug of support. Open every day, the Cathedral is open for visitors who can see much about prayer and spirituality alongside the building and people’s historic difficult relationship with England; yet, they can see so very much to let them know that they can find space and hope in this sanctified space. This exhibition sits well, helping the church, like Coventry Cathedral, say what it wants to say for itself. The more this tour goes on, the more I realise that Open Table Network and my artwork are in each venue because that church or cathedral wants to reinforce what it is already proclaiming – good news for all. This is profoundly hopeful when much of the media wants us to see otherwise. This was the point of the tour and I’m delighted that this has been so welcomed. Money is being raised for the Open Table Network from artwork sales and that means that advocacy for open churches is able to continue. Hurrah and hurrah.
