Savannah is an arts city, and historically the Christian Church has been a great patron of the arts. St. John’s art installations seek to do two things: first, to continue that tradition of faithful patronage, and secondly, to display art that conveys the gospel to those who encounter it. In 2023, St. John’s featured art from Ukrainian artist Ivana Demchuk and commissioned a series by artist Sean Marnul called “Man of Sorrows,” works of ink on paper which meditated on the Passion of our Lord. The originals were exhibited in the Green-Meldrim House with weather-proof duplicates installed in an outdoor exhibition so that all who walked through our downtown campus could encounter and contemplate these powerful visual works.
