Imagination Redeemed 2021:
Finding Your Place in the Great Story

A Call for Art



Creativity in the Conference

Creativity and the arts form an integral part of the Imagination Redeemed Conference.  We like to experience a variety of art forms in addition to cultivating our understanding of imagination and art. In its 2021 conference the Anselm Society will showcase visual art in person and in its digital gallery.

As part of the 2021 conference theme, “Finding Yourself in the Great Story,” the Anselm Society wants to know how you imagine the timeless Truths of the Great Story, the story of God’s creation and unending love for us.

Announcing Our 2021 Call for Art

Infinite Conceptions: Infinite Truth, Imaginatively Told

Infinity? Conception? Truth? Imagination? These are big words for a big theme, but they are small words to describe our eternal Father, who is boundless in love and creativity. This year’s gallery seeks to show how we, God’s creations endowed with imagination, can use our God-given talents to create reflections of God’s truth and boundless imagination.

Jesus used parables and their imagery to express Truth about God’s kingdom and His love. By doing so, He helped people understand both the simple parts of the Great Story as well as the bigger and deeper parts of the Great Story. Today’s artists can do likewise. This year, the Imagination Redeemed exhibition will offer viewers examples of the ways that visual artists use their imagination and creativity to tell the timeless Truths of the Great Story.  Scroll for details.
