Davis County – Book of Helaman Art Exhibit & Book Launch

The Art Exhibit The Book of Mormon has changed the lives of millions of people throughout the world as a set of scriptures utilized by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It was named the Fourth Most Influential Work in American Literature by the United States Library of Congress and was voted one of the Top Ten Most Life Changing Books by readers of Parade Magazine. It has been translated into over one hundred languages, and with over 200 million copies printed, it ranks as the Sixth Most Printed Book of All-time. Yet what makes the Book of Mormon remarkable is not its extensive reach, but rather the lasting imprint it leaves on the individual lives of its readers. In a 2 day free art exhibit and book launch, with over 30 powerful new paintings, the stories from the Book of Helaman in the Book of Mormon are brought to life. The paintings bring these stories to our day so we can more closely see ourselves within the people’s struggles and joys found within the Book of Helaman. The principles taught within these pages might then be more easily recognized and applied. Its message of faith and redemption might then remind us that in our darkest times, in the depths of our shadows, hope still will lighten the horizon.
