CREATE HOPE
the gallery
This year, in recognition of the high holidays and in commemoration of the 10/27 synagogue shooting at Tree of Life*Or L’Simcha, Dor Hadash, and New Light, we’ve invited the community to come together and create. We want to give people a chance to knit together all the pain and sadness and use it to make something new. Isolation and melancholy are rampant—let’s overcome them to inspire connection and create hope! Below are submissions of art, poetry, music, and more from people in the community. What will you create? Send your submissions to create@jfcspgh.org.
