Twenty-five members of various Islamic communities in the Boston area were matched up with twenty-five exquisite Qur’an pages from the MFA collection in this unique exhibition. Join Laura Weinstein, Ananda Coomaraswamy Curator of South Asian and Islamic Art, and Joan Wright, Bettina Burr Conservator, to learn about how the exhibition was put together, from the selection of the objects and their conservation to the collaboration with community members to write labels for the show.
