An exhibition opening next week at the Museum of the City of New York<\/span><\/a> will trace New York Catholics’ growth from a small religious minority to a politically powerful group with a wide range of institutions spanning the five boroughs.
\n“Catholics in New York, 1808-1946” \u2014 organized in light of the Archdiocese of New York’s bicentennial celebration \u2014 makes its debut on May 16. The exhibit is organized around three key themes: the centrality of parish life, the evolution of church-run schools, hospitals, and social welfare organizations, and the rise of Catholics as a major force in city politics.\\<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
