The Cathedral's architecture is enhanced and enriched with new visiting art installations. Together, we can make beauty in the world.
Les Colombes
German artist Michael Pendry brings his ethereal “Les Colombes” to Washington with a message of hope, inspiration and fresh beginnings. The exhibit will remain at the Cathedral until mid-2021.
The Cathedral is committed to building God's Kingdom on earth as it is in Heaven, where each person is celebrated as a beloved child of God.
Black History Month 2021
Black History Month recounts specific moments, achievements and milestones, but it also presents an opportunity to recall a witness of faith that provided strength to “see a way out of no way.”
The path from ashes to Alleluia is one that we walk together—from the solemnity of Lent to Holy Week to the glory of Easter Sunday.
Lent & Easter Online
We won’t be able to gather together as we normally would, but we can still make the journey together online. Sign up for a season pass and get every service and concert delivered to your inbox.
COVID-19 Memorial
We welcome the names of the loved ones you have lost during the COVID-19 pandemic. Each name will be trusted to God’s embrace as we include them in a virtual prayer service each week in the Chapel of St. Joseph of Arimathea.
