2023 Religious Architecture & Art Award Winners

Partners for Sacred Places presents the winners of the 2023 Faith & Form Awards for Religious Architecture & Art. The awards program was founded in 1978 with the goal of honoring the best in architecture, liturgical design, and art for religious spaces. The 2023 awards recognized excellence in the creation, restoration, and re-use of religious spaces, the designing of religious landscapes, and the making of religious art.

We want to thank our 2023 awards jury: Robin Edward Whitehurst, FAIA (jury chair), Jacquelyn Block AIA, Jennifer Correia, Steven Rajninger, FAIA, and Daniela Holt Voith, FAIA. We also want to thank Michael J. Crosbie, FAIA, who has organized and overseen the awards program for many years.
