Spring 2020 "First Vision" Exhibition — Gallery One
In his closing remarks of the October 2019 General Conference, President Russell M. Nelson said: "In the springtime of the year 2020, it will be exactly 200 years since Joseph Smith experienced the theophany that we know as the First Vision. God the Father and His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ, appeared to Joseph, a 14-year-old youth. That event marked the onset of the Restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ in its fulness, precisely as foretold in the Holy Bible."
To commemorate the bicentennial of the First Vision
the Alliance of Covenant Artists joyfully accepted the Prophet's charge
"to immerse [ourselves] in the glorious light of the Restoration"
and curated a gallery of juried artworks for your edification and contemplation.
