Summary/Abstract: The role of religion in building individual and collective identities and its influence on the socialization of groups is recognized. To enhance well-being and establish harmonious coexistence among people of different ethnic and religious identities, it is necessary to ensure meaningful interaction and engagement among them, realized in conditions of dialogical communication. The application of Convictional philosophy during interfaith dialogue allows us to uncover convictions and, if necessary, transform some practices and their expressions to prevent conflicts with people with different convictions. Art is an effective form of interfaith dialogue. Art allows different communities to unite in a common cause. Its power is to express the beliefs and feelings of the artist. Through art, different persons can come together, and their common artistic appreciation can unite them into a community.
