The Cathedral’s Tapestry Room

Posted: February 17th, 2009

St. John the Divine is not only the largest cathedral in the world, but it also houses one of the few textile conservatories in the country. In this lab, conservators work on priceless tapestries and those that only have great sentimental value.

Also see SundayArts’ previous profile of this world famous cathedral.

SundayArts is made possible in part by First Republic Bank and by the Rubin Museum of Art. Funding for SundayArts is also made possible by Rosalind P. Walter, The Paul and Irma Milstein Foundation, The Philip & Janice Levin Foundation, Elise Jaffe and Jeffrey Brown, Jody and John Arnhold, and The Lemberg Foundation. This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council. Additional funding provided by members of THIRTEEN.
