NEW YORK --- An interactive arts presentation and discussion hosted by the Dutchess County Arts Council Folk Arts Program showcased more than 100 objects different faiths use for prayer at the Mid-Hudson Heritage Center in Poughkeepsie. The exhibit, called "Counting Our Blessings," brought members of four local religious communities -- Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu and Roman Catholic -- together this afternoon to speak about the prayer objects significant in their faiths.
