Theology Through the Arts & the Arts Through Theology

Duke Initiatives in Theology and the Arts (DITA) promotes the vibrant engagement between Christian theology and the arts at Duke Divinity School and beyond. The arts do not just illustrate theology, but are themselves modes of theological expression. Art shapes the imagination of faith communities and provides the forms through which many people encounter the Gospel.
