Education in Zion exhibit, College of Nursing plan program Oct. 21

The Education in Zion exhibition at Brigham Young University’s Joseph F. Smith Building in conjunction with the College of Nursing will demonstrate “The Healer’s Art” during an evening of discussion, music and film Wednesday, Oct. 21, at 7 p.m. in the Education in Zion Theater, B-192 JFSB. The one-hour program will be followed by a brief question-and-answer session.

The event spotlights the College of Nursing’s Global Health and Human Diversity Course, including its participation in Operation Continuing Promise on the USNS Comfort.

“This is an opportunity for the students and community to experience the fruits of a Zion education,” said Ann Lambson, Education in Zion curator. “This exemplifies the primary goal of the exhibition while highlighting our College of Nursing.”

“We hope those who attend will be inspired by these stories and experiences,” Lambson said. “In turn, we want guests to contemplate how they can seek to serve others by building up local and global communities.”

Participants are also encouraged to take advantage of the pre-program tour of the Education in Zion gallery. This 30-minute tour will begin at 6 p.m. in the first floor lobby of the gallery. Following the conclusion of the program, guests may return there for a reception or continue to view the exhibition, which will remain open until 9 p.m.

The new hours for the Education in Zion exhibition are Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. with extended hours Monday and Wednesday evenings until 9 p.m., and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. To access the Education in Zion Theater, enter the first floor lobby and take the spiral staircase down to B-192.

Reserved parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis across the street east of the Gordon B. Hinckley Alumni and Visitors Center.
