In celebration of the Council of Nicea in 325, the symposium will explore the Nicene Creed and its impact on theology and the arts. Taking its cue from the Creed’s affirmation of the extraordinary union of God and humankind in Jesus of Nazareth, the conference seeks to foster surprising and generative meetings between those who might never get a chance to encounter each other. Programming will include plenaries, keynotes, seminars, and applied workshops and will culminate in a Saturday evening concert featuring the New Caritas Orchestra and a Sunday worship service in the Duke Chapel. Speakers include former archbishop Rowan Williams, Booker Prize–shortlisted novelist Chigozie Obioma, top theologians Amy Peeler and Natalie Carnes, renowned poet Malcolm Guite, and many more. Full programming and registration information to come!
