The Row House Forum will host a conversation-style presentation with twin brothers Andrew Gunnar Norquist, an artist, and Benjamin Norquist, an author, on Friday, Nov. 14, at 7 p.m. in the Square Halo Gallery, 37 N. Market St., Lancaster.

In "This Sacred Ground: Stories From Soil and Scripture," Andrew will display and discuss his new series of large-scale graphite drawings of ancient trees - works that invite viewers to encounter creation as both fragile and enduring, temporal and transcendent. Drawing on themes from his forthcoming book "Every Somewhere Sacred: Rescuing a Theology of Place in the American Imagination," Benjamin will provide a critical framework for reflecting on these artworks, raising questions about beauty, place, and the theological significance of the Earth.

Andrew is gallery coordinator for The Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, R.I. He blends drawing, sculpture, and installation with a deep sensitivity to place, memory, and meaning. He holds a Master of Fine Arts in sculpture from The Rhode Island School of Design and a Bachelor of Science in studio art from the University of Northwestern in St. Paul, Minn.

Benjamin is a writer, researcher, and educator whose work explores the sacredness of place at the intersection of land, story, and faith. He is a director at Churches for Middle East Peace and serves on the executive leadership team of Church at the Crossroads in Chicago.

Refreshments will be available. Tickets are available in advance for a discount or at the door for full price. Row House members will receive free admission for themselves and one guest. To reserve a seat or learn more, visit http://www.therowhouse.org.
