About the book:
When you enter a house of worship, what are you hoping to experience? Probably something like transcendence—a feeling of being taken out of your everyday existence to experience something profound, something beyond your usual life. When you look at art, what are you hoping to experience? Probably something similar. Good art can do that: it can lift you out of your circumstances. It can make you think. It can move you.
Both a spiritual resource for thoughtful Christians and creatives, and a meditation on the relationship between faith and the arts, in this book artist Alfonse Borysewicz explores the complex relationship between art’s push against boundaries and the church’s respect for the boundedness of faith, tradition, and theology. In a freshness of approach and voice, Borysewicz showing how creative experience can benefit people of faith and how timeless faith offers much to creative expression. Drawing on theologians, philosophers, novelists, and fellow artists, Borysewicz reflects on faith itself in a messy world offering limited certainty.
On This, Your Baptism
On This, Your Baptism is an installation and performance by Cindy Hernandez Mathis. Staged within a parish basement, the event investigates the popular material culture of baptismal party kitsch through a communal celebration of our personal feast day, the day of our Baptism.
Tickets are $15. Now available!
Engaging with popular memory of visual tropes such as chiffon cakes, lace and party favors, the event stages a conflict between twee, sentimental aesthetics that both uplift and obscure the transfigural, sacramental reality of Baptism. The installation is accompanied by a performance in the spirit of relational aesthetics in which participants are invited to receive a slice of cake. The cake slice is an invitation towards celebration and quiet contemplation of one’s own baptismal identity.

Behold the Beautiful Body of Christ
Retreat for Artists
Presented by Arthouse2B
June 12-14th, 2026
(Registration ends May 29, 2026)
Humanity was created to live in union with God. Sin and disobedience had pushed us out of God’s presence into a state of isolation and exile from Him who is Life. God resolved to meet us in our exile and so lead us back into God’s presence. Under the baptismal waters, we are drawn out of Adam’s isolation and corruption and brought into the integrity and glory of the resurrected body of Christ.
The retreat will feature five talks throughout the weekend that will investigate the question: what will save me from my loneliness? Each talk will touch on aspects of the path of the human person from isolation into communion by their membership in his glorified body, the Church. We will explore Christ's role as head of the Church, how this rescue is executed for the baptized and the unbaptized, and how it plays out in our day-to-day lives.
This year our retreat speakers will include: Fr. Joseph Michael Fino, CFR, Sr. Eden Marie, S.V., Marina Fess, and Fr. Jonah Teller, O.P.
In addition to the series of talks, there will be time each day for reception of the sacraments, Eucharistic Adoration, and extended time for rest, personal prayer, creative work, time outdoors, and fellowship.
Join us June 12-14, 2026 at the Retreat Center at the Seminary of the Immaculate Conception in Huntington, NY for our annual retreat for artists. Ticket price includes the cost of lodging and meals throughout the weekend. Please stay tuned for further details from the retreat team regarding suggestions for transportation to the retreat center, including options for carpool and/or public transportation.
Please email Jenny Kibrick at retreats@arthouse2b.org with any questions.

Arthouse2B Second Annual Benefit
Arthouse2B celebrated our Second Annual Benefit on the Feast of St. Cecilia, Saturday, November 22, 2025, at St. Joseph’s Church in Greenwich Village.
The evening was centered around the theme of Flourishing. After a beautiful Mass at St. Joseph's Church celebrated by pastor Fr. Boniface, O.P., we came together in McGuire Hall for a truly special celebration. Thanks to a delicious spread by Monte's Trattoria, a phenomenal keynote by our very own Sean McCullough, the presentation of our inagural St. Cecilia Award to Marylee MacDougall, and beautiful performances by Christa Dalmazio, Claire Kretzschmar, and Studio Child, it was really a night to remember.
We are so thankful to the volunteers who helped make the evening run so smoothly, to the artists who shared their testimony with those present, and to the friars at St. Joe's for their constant support in prayer.

Becoming Becoming at The Sheen Center
In August 2025, Arthouse2B presented an exhibition of works by Joséphine Dubern at The Sheen Center for Thought and Culture.
The exhibition, curated by Erin McAtee and Lucy Rahner, was an exploration of what it means to be an artist specifically in the context of motherhood: What does it mean to be an artist before versus after having a child? How does the process of creating a work as an artist relate to the process of creating a new life within oneself? What can an artist who is a mother specifically offer the Art World, an artistic landscape that has historically not been the most welcoming to such a state of life?
Becoming Becoming examined how mothers are ontologically gestational, creative in the very nature of their being.
Joséphine Dubern was born in 1995 in Aix-en-Provence, France. After studying communication sciences at the Université de Montreal, she graduated from Les Beaux-Arts de Marseille. She currently lives and works in Montreal, where she is also the mother of two children.
The exhibition was on view at the Dilenschneider Gallery at The Sheen Center (18 Bleecker Street) from August 6-28th, 2025. It was accompanied by a special immersive gallery performance by Karina Majewski on August 23rd & August 28th.

Behold the Beautiful One: The Heart of Beauty Artist Retreat
St. John Paul II once said that at the origin of all that exists, of all the created world, lies “not so much a great mind, as a great heart.” This Heart from which all of creation springs forth into being is the same source from which flows all that is Beautiful. This center of Beauty, this Heart of Beauty, is what anyone who has heard the summons to create, no matter what form that may take, has experienced — even if they couldn’t name it.
On May 9-11th, 2025 at the Loyola Jesuit Center in Morristown, NJ, we held our annual retreat for artists.
This year our speakers included: Fr. Malachy Napier, CFR, Fr. Isaac Spinharney, CFR, Sr. Tirzah Mariae, S.V., Br. Damiano Pio, CFR, Fr. Samuel Bellafiore, and Samantha D’Agostino.

Thank you to our celebrant, Fr. Jonah Teller, OP, and all those at St. Joseph’s Church in Greenwich Village who welcomed us for this special event.

De•compositions
De•compositions, a new group exhibition featuring drawings and works on paper, was view at St. Joseph’s Church in Greenwich Village from March 7 - April 9, 2025.
Co-curator Lucy Rahner considers the ashes on our heads at the start of Lent: “The Lenten season starts with an ashen sign of mortality on the forehead, like the smudge of charcoal an artist finds on his face after a long day in the studio. It seems no coincidence that graphite and charcoal—perhaps the most fundamental media of mark-making—are made of carbon, the very element to which our bodies return...”

“Playing Around” Gallery Exhibition
This exhibition, curated by Lucy Rahner, was presented in the Gabriel Gallery from August 3rd until September 6th. Featured artists: Adrienne Lee, Audrey Bennett, and Sasha Hallock.
From the curator:
“G.K. Chesterton noted that, ‘It might reasonably be maintained that the true object of all human life is play. Earth is a task garden; heaven is a playground.’ Yet, the experience of forgetting how to play as we become adults—losing that which gave color to childhood—seems depressingly ubiquitous. Play is indispensable, somehow existing for its own sake—for the love of the game—while filling life with vitality.”
Arthouse2B at Catholicpalooza
On Saturday, July 27th, Arthouse2B presented a new experimental musical performance based on the life and martyrdom of Saint Lucy written and directed by Artistic Associate Karina Majewski.

Arthouse2B was also a vendor at the festival. It was a pleasure to meet with attendees and share with them our mission as well as artwork from three members of the community: Oxana Lim, Sean McCullough, & Mindy Indy.
NEC - Eucharistic Revival for Artists - July 2024
On July 19th, Arthouse2B hosted an event in downtown Indianapolis during the National Eucharistic Congress. This gathering connected lay Catholic artists, patrons, clergy, and religious from around the country with the common desire of seeking Beauty and being transformed by it.
The event featured a dance performance by co-founder Claire Kretzschmar, music by Sean Erickson, and artwork by Desiree Hinshaw, who also helped organize the event. Attendees heard a fervorino by Fr. Malachi Napier, CFR, in which he exhorted them to look to the Eucharist as a source for their artistic practice.
A highlight from Fr. Malachy’s remarks: “The Eucharistic Heart of Jesus reveals to us the reality, the truth, the love and the beauty that is behind all the experiences of our lives. These experiences often give birth to art and that shifts the eyes of an artist when they realize that this something they are in contact with, this something that has allowed the artist to create is actually a Someone. That shift from something to Someone opens up a new horizon of creativity in which there is a relationship; the artist is encountering the presence of a person, and that person is in fact, Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh.”
Thank you to all who attended our event at the National Eucharistic Congress. It was a gift to commune with you and to encourage each other in the pursuit of Beauty and the Beautiful One.

Arthouse2B's Annual Artist Retreat:
Behold the Beautiful One: Mary, Mother of Beauty
Inspired by the National Eucharistic Revival that has been happening throughout the United States, Behold the Beautiful One is a retreat for artists inviting them to come and encounter the Beauty that inspires and calls us deeper into creativity as artists. Through Mass, Eucharistic adoration, confession, music, talks, fellowship with other artists and Eucharistic creativity offered over three days, participants experienced the Beauty that inspires our art and were challenged to enter more deeply into the vocation we have as artists to point others to the Beautiful One. We are grateful to have had the support of several religious communities for the retreat, including the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, Sisters of Life, Dominicans of St. Joseph's Provence, and Piarist Fathers.
