Art & Artifacts from Around the (Jewish) World

Visit the beautiful Temple-Tifereth Israel Gallery, home to nearly 180 priceless objects from more than 20 countries including Ethiopia, Morocco, Turkey, Kurdistan, Iran, France, Germany, Poland and Lithuania. See how ritual objects play a consistent role in religious and cultural life across generations and continents, yet at the same time reflect the specific artistic traditions of the many nations where Jews have lived. Students will have the opportunity to sketch objects and compare them to cultural objects from their own lives.
