A lay Catholic initiative that promotes the Good, the True and the Beautiful in our region through the arts and culture
The arts have the power to unify, transform, touch hearts and break divisions while they entertain and educate. What they present and the story they choose to tell forms and influences hearts, minds and souls. The Angelico Project will speak to the dignity of the human person and enrich our community through what is Good, True and Beautiful.
The Angelico Project is lighting a beacon of hope.
