(Wilmington, N.C.) — Wilmington Faith & Values expands its roster of fabulous tours of downtown worship spaces this fall.

The Religious Art Tours of African-American Churches will be 9-11 a.m. Oct. 12 and Oct. 19 and will feature the beauty and artistic expressions of five downtown churches.

The tour will start at St. Stephen A.M.E. Church and continue on to First Missionary Baptist Church, St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, Chestnut Street Presbyterian Church and St. Luke A.M.E. Zion Church. The Wilmington Trolley Company will provide transportation between Chestnut Street Presbyterian and St. Luke. The trolley will then take tour participants back to their cars near Fifth and Red Cross streets.

NEW this season: the tour will include multimedia presentations of the music and choirs in the life of each congregation.

The Religious Art Tours of African-American Churches has a suggested donation of $15 per person and is a fundraiser for the nonprofit Wilmington Faith & Values, the area’s largest source for faith and values news. Reserve your tickets now!

Details: 910-520-3958 or email Amanda Greene.

Spaces for these tours go fast!

No paywalls here. Thanks to you.
As an independent nonprofit, RNS believes everyone should have access to coverage of religion that is fair, thoughtful and inclusive. That's why you will never hit a paywall on our site; you can read all the stories and columns you want, free of charge (and we hope you read a lot of them!)

But, of course, producing this journalism carries a high cost, to support the reporters, editors, columnists, and the behind-the-scenes staff that keep this site up and running. That's why we ask that if you can, you consider becoming one of our donors. Any amount helps, and because we're a nonprofit, all of it goes to support our mission: To produce thoughtful, factual coverage of religion that helps you better understand the world. Thank you for reading and supporting RNS.
