Video: “Passages” exhibit entering final weekend at Oklahoma City Museum of Art
History buffs, art lovers, cultural explorers and faithful Christians have only a few days left to check out a monumental event focusing on the most copied, most quoted, most printed, most banned and most influential book of all time.
The vast “Passages” exhibition, making its world premiere right here in Oklahoma, is closing Sunday at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art. It is next headed to St. Peters Square in Vatican City.
In this video, NewsOK host Angi Bruss takes a look at “Passages,” the nonsectarian, worldwide traveling exhibition of The Green Collection, among the world’s newest and largest private collections of rare biblical manuscripts and artifacts. The collection is named after the Green family, founder-owners of Oklahoma City’s arts and crafts retailer Hobby Lobby.
More than 50,000 people have visited “Passages” since it opened in May, said Leslie Spears, the museum’s communications manager. The exhibit, which celebrates the 400th anniversary of the King James Bible, closes Sunday at the downtown museum. It next is headed to St. Peter’s Square in Vatican City.
