On one of the Baha’i web forums I am on, someone posted about Tabula Rasa, a new Baha’i arts magazine. I just read through the entire premiere issue, and it is professional, well-written, and informative.
From the site:
Tabula Rasa, where art and spirit converge … gently, intelligently, meaningfully…
…Tabula Rasa has been created to celebrate the Creator in all of us, to express our pure wonderment and joy at God’s revelation of the word “Fashioner” and to explore its myriad meanings….
I am very, very impressed. They’re calling for submissions. I keep saying that I am surrounded by incredibly talented individuals…and I feel like there are some of you that don’t share that talent with the world nearly as much as you should. It is not meant to be kept hidden, or only shared with a few friends.
The purpose of art, in my mind, is to rejuevenate, uplift, raise questions, and inspire awe.
I’ve also updated the links on the right. I’ll probably be adding more as time goes on, so feel free to send me an email if you know of a link that I should have up.

Obviously you don’t read bahaiblog 🙂 We wrote about Tabula Rasa back in January. Come check us out.
Thanks for the tip, Sholeh! I just read the whole issue as well, and I agree with your sentiments. I especially like Garry Berteig’s painting, The Veil, used on the opening page. Wow. Inspiring.
