The Exhibition.With three different components, The Review of Religions exhibition provides a unique interfaith perspective and interactive experience for guests.
The first component is an exquisite collection of early copies of the Holy Qur’an and other relics, organized by The Review of Religion’s head of special collections, Razwan Baig. Razwan Baig will also be running workshops and seminars covering the changes in Islamic calligraphy and the diverse materials used to pen these works of art. The second component is an extensive exhibit of the Turin Shroud, including a rare life-size replica of the Shroud brought by Pam Moon and her team. A new addition this year is the replica of The Sudarium of Oviedo; which is believed to be the cloth placed on the face of Jesus (as) following his crucifixion. There will also be a an international line-up of world renowned speakers at the first ever Review of Religions International Shroud Conference. Finally, guests are able to participate in a unique interactive experience: the Al-Qalam project. Founded by Razwan Baig and officially launched in 2016, this ambitious project allows each guest to pen one verse of the Holy Qur’an in Arabic. This will lead to a unique document highlighting the diversity of all—men and women, young and old, black and white and is open for people of all faiths. |
