Off Our Walls 2023 – 5784

September 15 – October 29

The High Holy Days tradition of inviting guests from the community to our homes over the holidays is turned inside-out with the High Holiday “Off Our Walls” exhibition, which brings Jewish-themed artwork from the homes of BEKI members into our communal space.

This year more than 18 households are participating in the show, loaning works of art that are an important part of their home environments and personal histories.  Exhibited are pieces in various media that broadly reflect Jewish history and culture, including scenes of Jerusalem, Jewish holidays, Biblical themes, and personal experiences.

The wealth of these resources from the homes of BEKI members reminds at the start of the New Year of the complex and beautiful heritage of the Jewish people.
