The New York Landmarks Conservancy will host its annual Sacred Sites Open House on May 18 and 19, inviting visitors to explore the extraordinary architecture, art and history of diverse houses of worship throughout New York State. <\/p>\n

Participating congregations will showcase their buildings and community programs. This year\u2019s theme is \u201cWelcoming Our Neighbors\u201d, as religious institutions continue to offer social service and cultural programs serving the wider community. Some sites will feature musical performances and special guided tours. <\/p>\n

Sacred Sites Open House is a free, statewide event that offers visitors an opportunity to discover remarkable architecture as a \u201ctourist in your own town.\u201d<\/p>\n
