The Saint John’s Bible: Heritage Edition: Training for Guides (Brad Neary, M.A.)

The Saint John’s Bible is the first handwritten bible, commissioned by a Benedictine monastery in more than five hundred years on approximately 1,150 pages and including 160 major illuminations. A copy of the large, seven-volume leather bound Heritage Edition, which is a fine art reproduction of The Saint John’s Bible, has been donated to St. Benedict Center and is now on permanent display. This workshop is for those who might be interested in becoming guides or docents for The Saint John’s Bible: You will get to know The Saint John’s Bible, learn “why” and “how” the original manuscript was created and become familiar with the illuminations.

Attendance is free, but registration is required.
