Our friends over at Sixth & I, in conjunction with Dvar Tzedek fellow Rachel Farbiaz, are organizing a three-part workshop investigating the meanings and methods of creative interpretation. They will explore what it means to interpret a central text, concept, or object. How do we use our interpretive faculties to make meaning in our lives? How can the interpretive traditions of religion and art inform each other and our creative and spiritual lives? In conjunction with Torah text study, we will engage with works of conceptual art and particularly the "instructional art" practiced by artists like Sol LeWitt.

Tuesdays March 2, 9 & 16 at 7:00 p.m. 

Jews United for Justice shares information about events & opportunities sponsored by JUFJ allies, or information about local Jewish or inter-faith events and opportunities which concern local social justice issues, local anti-poverty work, or religious teachings about social justice issues.
