Saint John Divine itself is the suiting venue for Haring’s last piece. It is the largest cathedral in the world (St. Peters Basilica is bigger but not a cathedral), and was built in the early 1900s. It is also known for its interfaith tradition and acceptance, dedication to art (they hold modern exhibitions) and non-religious community workshops (like an annual reading of Dante’s Inferno)- all the makings of the perfect venue for Haring’s last piece to live on.
