Music and Arts Mission Statement
The arts and religious faith have been related in creative synergy since the beginning of time, and contain within them the power and capacity to lift the human spirit, reminding us of the eternal and transcendent God. Religious faith, in turn, inspires the composer, instrumentalist, singer, actor, and visual artist to express in their work what cannot be articulated in any other way. At the Fourth Presbyterian Church of Chicago, the relationship between religious faith and the arts is expressed in a highly professional program of artistic expression that emphasizes excellence in performance as a part of regular public worship as well as concerts, dramatic presentations, and sacred art exhibitions.
