An event every week that begins at 11:00 am on Friday, repeating until February 11, 2023
Pre-modern Jews are often described as “people of the book,” but Jews produced visual art over the centuries as well – images in illuminated Bibles, Mahzorigm, and Haggadot that are complex, often learned, and sometimes deeply subversive. How might our understanding of Torah study shift if we accompany study of Jewish texts with study of Jewish images?
Member fee $25 or included in Friday morning package; non-member fee $35
