Presented in partnership with the GTU’s Research Collaborative on Reception History of the Bible, it considers physicality and embodiment in approaches to the text and in the text’s own words.

Open free of charge to all Tuesdays - Fridays, 10am - 4pm in the GTU’s Doug Adams Gallery through December 11!
