This Advent we are delighted to host Carole Baker’s art installation, Mary: The Paper Doll Project. Baker created four life-size Marys representing four Marian visitations from around the world. This exhibit is interactive as the outer garments are interchangeable. You’ll be able to change them, just like a giant paper doll. Baker created the exhibit to explore the universality and particularity of Mary.

We are hosting this exhibit on the breezeway between the two Church of the Good Shepherd buildings. That breezeway has doors on either side that will be opened and we are taking other precautions to ensure everyone’s safety. 

First, we’d like you to come and interact with the Marys:

• Wednesdays, Dec 9-23, 4-6 pm
• Saturdays, Dec. 5-19, 1-3 pm

We require social distance, masks on, sanitizer or gloves before handling the exhibit, and one person or group admitted at a time. 

Second, we need volunteers to make sure we can keep the exhibit and participants safe. We’re asking two people to sign up for each shift. 

Here’s the instructions for what volunteers will be doing.

And here’s a nice video that Duke Chapel put together when the display was there a few years ago

Thanks for visiting the exhibit and for signing up to help!
