A refugium is an ecological term for a protected place where organisms can survive cataclysmic events. Nature has served as a refuge for artists and inspired their work for many centuries. 

The four artists in this invitational exhibit nurture practices informed both by nature and their faith. While creation’s beauty can serve as a refuge, for these exhibiting artists it ultimately points to a higher place of security.

Through the beauty of this exhibit, viewers will glean wisdom about where to look for refuge in times of great upheaval and change.
