Description

In July of 2024, Hurricane Beryl caused extensive damage to the Rothko Chapel, a previous grantee of the Luce Foundation’s Religion and Theology Program. In response to an urgent request from the Chapel, this new Luce grant will help support the repair of the Chapel itself, help to conserve one of the paintings within it, support remediation efforts to protect the Chapel in the case of another extreme weather event, and fund the production of a study report intended to be useful to other small non-profit organizations facing extreme weather events in an era of climate change.
