Explore the power of art-making as a tool for personal and collective renewal!
As we arrive at Beresheit, we return to the beginning—the story of creation itself. This moment invites us to contemplate origins, possibility, and the ongoing act of transformation. What are we creating in our own lives? What wants to be born through us? Using the Jewish Studio Process, a unique methodology blending art therapy practices with a reimagined approach to Jewish learning and spirituality, we’ll explore the creative power that lives within us, honoring our capacity to shape and reshape our worlds with intention and imagination.
Rabbi Adina Allen, Jewish Studio Project founding rabbi and president (she/her), is a spiritual leader, writer, and educator who believes in the power of creativity to revitalize our lives and transform Jewish tradition.
