DOCUTAH to present “Muslim Journeys”

To recognize the beginning of Al Hijra (the Islamic New Year) from Oct. 28-30, The Utah Humanities Council and Dixie State University-DOCUTAH are proud to collaborate on “Muslim Journeys” — a festival of films, discussions, visual art and photographic displays exploring Muslim themes.

DOCUTAH is presenting three films to be screened at 7 p.m. each evening in the DSU Eccles Fine Arts Center Concert Hall: “Prince Among Slaves,” “Koran by Heart” and “Islamic Art: Mirror of the Invisible World.”

Each film will be followed by a discussion led by special guests of the event: Kathleen Herndon, Joel Lewis, Shadman Bashir and Andrew Kosorok.

Beyond the films, patrons can enjoy glass sculpture by Andrew Kosorok on display in the Sears Art Museum Gallery.

The show is entitled “99 Most Beautiful Names,” each sculpture representing a name of God from the Quran.

Kosorok served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Alabama.

“The sculptures are tangible records of my personal struggle against prejudice and ignorance,” Kosorok said. “They allow me to share my journey toward understanding others.”

In addition, attendees will delight in the talents of other invited artists whose work will be on display in the Eccles Grand Foyer.

The 3-day event will kick off with a special Dixie Forum lecture in the DSU Browning Learning Center Dunford Auditorium at noon on Oct. 28.
