VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE
Surprising Encounters in Theology and the Arts
A Symposium on Theology and the Arts
How can the arts help us open up the very heart of the Christian faith, celebrated at the Council of Nicaea in 325, that Jesus Christ is “one in being” with God? Featuring world-class academics, artists, musicians, and clergy from around the globe and a robust range of programming, DITA2025 is a four-day symposium at Duke University celebrating Nicaea and the myriad surprises the Creed holds in store for artists, academics, clergy, and parishioners today. Early-bird registration now open!
“DITA10 was a space of transformation. I discovered kindred spirits, encountered gorgeous art, and gained new perspectives on the state of the conversation in theology and the arts. I’m delighted to be participating in DITA2025.”
—Dr. Natalie Carnes, Baylor University

“I am honored to have been part of DITA again. As always, it was amazing to play with an orchestra at that level of talent, but that isn’t the only thing that made the concert special. It was a truly transformative experience to be a part of something bigger than us, bigger than the hall, and even bigger than the music we were playing.”
—Whitney Pencina, Flutist, New Caritas Orchestra
