Fine art is always on display at the JCC.
The JCC Taube Center for Jewish Peoplehood mounts multi-media art shows four times a year, presenting both local and international Jewish artists. These seasonal exhibitions highlight a variety of themes pertinent to the Jewish calendar, holidays, values, text, and traditions.
The exhibitions have featured work from prominent artists including Lawrence Kushner, Siona Benjamin, Laurie Wohl, Lauren Bartone, MIND the HEART!, Hillel Smith, and many others.
Exhibitions are well publicized and are enjoyed by all who visit the JCC.

Jewish Artists on Mental Health
An exhibition exploring the intersections of Judaism, mental health, and art. Experience stories of resilience, vulnerability, and hope- highlighting mental health within the Jewish community.
R’fuah sh’leimah means “get well soon” in Hebrew, but at its heart, it is a blessing for sh’leimut— complete healing of body, mind, and spirit. Sh’leimut shares a root with shalom, meaning peace, wholeness, and a sense of being accompanied on one’s journey. In Jewish tradition, the body is sacred—the vessel of the soul—and mystically, our entire being is seen as dwelling within the Divine. Each of these artists—Lindsay Belnick, Sarah Cohen, David Coons, Sam R. Fein, Serach Aleria Sarra, Michael Dean Shelton, and Ellen Weinstein—responded to an open call exploring the intersection of Judaism and mental health. Through art, we cope, connect and heal.
This exhibition invites open dialogue, reduces stigma around mental illness and addiction, and nurtures understanding through empathy. May it support your own sense of sh’leimut—healing and wholeness.

With apologies, we do not accept unsolicited works.
Exhibits at the Osher Marin JCC are curated roughly a year or more in advance by JCC staff and in partnership with Bay Area colleagues—with whom we often share materials and costs.
We strive to bring Jewish art that is high in quality, spiritually stirring, and environmentally awakening. We hope these works of art elevate your experience at our JCC.
