Shroud Exhibit Vision
©1978 Barrie M Schwortz Collection, STERA, Inc. | Appearing on the Shroud of Turin is a front-to-back image of a crucified man, seen with the naked eye. The Shroud’s dimensions are 14 ft. x 3.5 ft.
The National Shroud of Turin Exhibit team envisions an impactful, interactive, and immersive high-tech exhibit featuring a life-size Shroud replica. We are looking to secure a street-level space in the prominent Connecticut and K Street areas of downtown Washington, D.C., to attract continuous, impromptu walk-in traffic. Additionally, a ten-seat “contemplation chapel” is planned for inspired visitors to pray and reflect upon what they experienced. Our team of 14 Shroud experts is working on what Shroud of Turin exhibit visitors can expect to learn, experience, and feel.
Here is a brief outline, but check back often as we develop the plan for this permanent and vitally important Shroud of Turin exhibit in Washington, D.C., with the proposed name:

Our team is still experiencing momentum after our successful four-day Shroud exhibit at the National Eucharistic Congress. The Congress was attended by 60,000 people in Indianapolis, Indiana, July 17-21, 2024. Also, click Exhibit News to see photos about the Eucharistic Congress exhibit toured by Jonathan Roumie, who plays Jesus in the hit series “The Chosen.” Jonathan is shown below with the exhibit team on the front page of Aleteia - July 26, 2024, (an influential international Catholic news site).

Below: The momentum to build a National Shroud of Turin Exhibit began in 2018, when our SignFromGod.org team (the foundation's official IRS- 501(c)3 name and forerunner to the National Shroud of Turin Exhibit) was involved in persuading the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C., to host a Shroud exhibit. The Museum's exhibit was on display as scheduled from Feb. 26 – July 31, 2022. During its tenure, the exhibit was the museum’s most popular attraction, substantiating the demand for a permanent Shroud exhibit in the nation’s capital. Shown below: Myra Kahn Adams, Executive Director of the National Shroud of Turin Exhibit, at the Museum of the Bible's Shroud exhibit opening on Feb. 23, 2022.
Shown below are National Shroud of Turin Exhibit members who were instrumental in convincing the Museum of the Bible to host an exhibit about the Shroud. SignFromGod.org is the official Foundation name of which the National Shroud of Turin Exhibit is a project. SignFromGod co-sponsored the Museum of the Bible's opening event, in addition to every Shroud speaker program starting in Jan. 2020.
