Featuring 52 artworks ranging from the 15th to the 21st century, the exhibition explores how, as Christianity spread around the world, the qualities and attributes of Christian saints were often altered to better align with local religious practices and customs. The exhibition was curated by Hope College students working under the supervision of Art History Professor Dr. Anne Heath. 

The Kruizenga Art Museum functions as an educational resource for Hope College and the greater West Michigan community. The museum features two public galleries as well as a classroom and climate-controlled storage space for its 9,000-object permanent collection. It is named in honor of a leadership gift from Dr. Richard and Margaret Kruizenga, both of whom graduated from Hope in 1952.

Admission to the museum is always free and the public is welcome.

Open Tuesday-Saturday 10:00 am-4:00 pm
