Commissioning new

Latter-day Saint Art

The Center commissions original works that invite artists to create ambitious, thoughtfully produced projects for our community and audiences. These commissions support artists in developing new work while expanding how faith-informed art can be experienced, collected, and shared. Discover past commissions through the years.
