Art has always been a bridge to the divine, a reflection of God’s boundless creativity and a means through which His truth is revealed. The Jubilee of Artists, scheduled for February 16-18, 2025, is a profound acknowledgment of this sacred relationship. During this event, Rome will welcome artists from across the globe to celebrate the beauty of creation and its ability to inspire faith.

This Jubilee will not only highlight the contributions of contemporary artists but will also pay homage to the rich legacy of sacred art preserved within the city. The Church of San Marcello al Corso, which hosted the successful exhibition of Salvador Dalí’s Christ of Saint John of the Cross, exemplifies how art can evoke deep spiritual reflections. Such events underscore the timeless dialogue between faith and artistry, where every brushstroke, sculpture, and melody becomes a prayer.

Artists attending the Jubilee will participate in exhibitions, concerts, and discussions, exploring themes of redemption, hope, and human dignity. These gatherings invite contemplation on how art can continue to proclaim the Gospel in a world searching for meaning. The Jubilee of Artists reminds us that creativity is a divine gift, a channel through which humanity can draw closer to its Creator.
