 Liturgical Arts Festival of Springfield is an interfaith celebration of the arts.
What are “liturgical arts”? 
Liturgical arts are cultural expressions of creativity, beauty, and community life: music, dance, drama, poetry, architecture, and visual art. LAFS is inspired by the beautiful diversity of faith
traditions within our own community.
