A SACRED PIECE OF HOME: WASHINGTON D:C. is a documentary series about places of worship in the D.C. Area made by distinct ethno-religious communities. The multi-faceted series lies at the intersection of religion, architecture, ethnicity, and immigration history. It includes all major religions and many ethnic groups – English, Irish, German, African, Greek, Russian, Ukrainian, Cambodian, Vietnamese, Korean and Indian. Interviews with scholars, authors, clergy and congregants inform us about the founding of Greek and Russian Orthodox churches, a Hindu Temple and a Mosque. Also featured are a Gothic Cathedral, a Catholic Basilica, neo-classical churches, many versions of a Synagogue, a Sikh Gurdwara, a Zoroastrian temple, a Buddhist temple and Jain mandir. More information on https://www.sacredpieceofhome.com
The program was conceptualized by Amita Sarin, a member of AAR. She co-produced the series with Dr. Ori Z. Soltes, Georgetown University, who is also Host and narrator.
The series is streaming free nationwide on the PBS app until the end of 2025.
