Sukkot (Hebrew for “Tabernacles”) is a seven-day harvest festival; the happiest of biblical holidays, which celebrates the bounty of nature. Each year, a fragile booth and four species of plants is erected to represent the agricultural world.
Join art educator Nancy Kotz for a fascinating program looking at woodcuts, etchings, illuminated manuscripts, papercuts, silver and wood etrog boxes, paintings, photographs and prints.
It is a chronological and geographic overview of visual art objects and their symbolism related to Sukkot.
Save! Register by Sept 24th for “Early Bird” pricing!

Registrants are requested to make sure the email w/link has arrived by the evening of Sep 24th. If the email does not arrive, please see “Troubleshooting” below.
The email w/link will be re-sent to all registrants about 1-2 hours prior to the event. NB: However, if it landed somewhere other than in your inbox upon registration, it will probably do the same later.
