This exhibition explores the historical narrative of the St. Thomas' Cathedral juxtaposed with the city of Mumbai, across 300 years. With the growth of Bombay emerged a church that was built across decades to serve the community and grew to emerge into a landmark for the city. It's incremental growth is reflective of how Mumbai was transforming, and its importance was reinforced with the name Churchgate that was given for the prominent city railway station that lies on it's axes. The Living Cathedral tells it's story through curated objects, some of which have never before been displayed to the public. From the extension of the original church school arose an educational institution - The Cathedral and John Connon School that stands as one of India's leading academic institutions today This journey endeavours to celebrate 300 years of the story, magnificence and beauty of St. Thomas' Cathedral.
