Bicentenary Website Showcases Artistic Expression from Around the World

At Baha’i Blog, we’re huge fans of artistic expressions so we wanted to make sure everyone was aware of the wonderful section on the official bicentenary website dedicated to artistic expressions from around the world in honour of the 200th anniversary of the Birth of the Bab, Prophet-herald of the Baha’i Faith.

From Bolivia to Iraq, and from Singapore to the Netherlands, this website showcases various artistic initiatives and activities created by individuals and communities, and the page is constantly being updated too!

You can check out all the various creative initiatives at once, or choose from the following categories:

* Visual Arts
* Performing Arts
* Music
* Film & Video
* Poetry & Storytelling

Be sure to visit the site repeatedly in the coming days and hours as more and more content is added!
