Butterfly Project & Interfaith Dedication Pieta
The Academy of Our Lady of Peace all-girls’ high school in San Diego, will hold its Butterfly Project and Pietà Dedication Ceremony at the Holy Family Event Center. OLP will unveil the Martha McRoskey Place of Peace. This space will house a replica of Michelangelo’s Pietà. The space will also include an official installation of The Butterfly Project, which was founded by educator Jan Landau and artist Cheryl Rattner Price in 2006 at the San Diego Jewish Academy. The Pietà and The Butterfly Project are joined together in the Martha McRoskey Place of Peace, which serves as an interfaith sacred space in honor of the work of the school’s founders, the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet and their mission of “unifying love,” which is very alive today in thought and action. The dedication ceremony is free and open to the public; an RSVP is required.
