The High Holidays are a season of reflection: a time to ask what we carry forward into the new year, and what we choose to release. This joint exhibit brings together two artists whose work speaks to that cycle of renewal.
Through fiber, paint, and print, this exhibit evokes the feelings of the High Holiday season through the work of Rabbi Eliana Jacobowitz and Mel Brown. Together, these works invite us into the new year with intention, honoring both continuity and change.
Eliana Jacobowitz creates tallitot (Jewish prayer shawls) as wearable art, bridging past and present through ritual. Each piece weaves together fragments of old garments with new fabric, evoking the ways memory, identity, and tradition shape who we are in community today.
Painter and printmaker Mel Brown is also a spiritual leader who works with deliberately limited colors, allowing the essence of each hue to emerge fully. Each work begins as a journey without a clear destination, guided not by a fixed idea but by the act of listening, a form of meditation that also serves as a form of visual midrash (storytelling).
The exhibit will be on display from Aug. 18 to Oct. 10.
