Islamic Art and Architecture

For centuries, Muslim architects, designers, and artists have sought to draw closer to God in every aspect of their work, using art and architecture as a means of ibadah (worship), and bringing the presence of the sacred into every part of their cities. In our modern era, architecture is focused on budget, flashy design, and speed - but it lacks the sacredness of traditional Islamic architecture. What makes Islamic architecture so beautiful and spiritually rich, and how can we learn from the design of these sacred spaces? Join us in a workshop to learn the basics of Islamic art and architecture, and uncover the beauty of centuries of Islamic design. https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/learning-from-islamic-architecture-the-dna-of-sacred-space THIS SUNDAY!
