Ma Tovu - how good it can be to sit together and make something beautiful.

Inspired by the mosaic tradition of ancient synagogues, we have the opportunity to design and create a mosaic depicting the Jewish year as a journey of spiritual flow. Each holiday is related to the next in the sweep of the Jewish year.

This exercise of hiddur mitzvah (enhancing a mitzvah through beauty) will be designed both to beautify and to teach. We will create a mosaic that refers to the spirit-journey through the Jewish ritual year, engaging our heads and hands.

Join Susan Shender and Abby Bennett as we kick off this project, learn about ancient synagogue art, and try your hand at mosaic-making on Sunday, June 25th from 1-4pm at MaTovu. The following three sessions, we will be creating a community mosaic to be permanently installed on a table at MaTovu.

No artistic skill required! This project is most accessible to those 10 years and up.
