SUMMARY:ArtFULL: Art at the Heart of Jewish Life\, OPENING RECEPTION
DESCRIPTION:**ArtFULL: Art at the Heart of Jewish Life**\n**Exhibit Dates:** October 18 – December 2\, 2026\n**Opening Reception:** Sunday\, October 18\, 1 – 4 PM \nThis exhibit celebrates the powerful and enduring relationship between art\,\nJewish identity\, tradition\, and community. Across two floors\, the exhibition\nexplores how artists transform Jewish experience into creative expression\, and\nhow art becomes part of the fabric of Jewish life. \nThe lower gallery\, juried by Barbara Heller (Director and Conservator\, Special\nProjects at DIA) features the work of local Jewish artists\, highlighting the\ndiverse ways artists draw from their Jewish experiences and identities.\nThrough paintings\, sculpture\, photography\, textiles\, and other forms of\ncreative expression\, each artist offers a unique perspective on what it means\nto create as a Jewish artist today. \nThe upper gallery\, juried by Rabbi Aaron Bergman and Barbra Kratchman\,\nfeatures artist-made Judaica\, bringing together treasured heirlooms on loan\nfrom community members alongside contemporary works by practicing artists.\nThese objects reveal the many ways Jewish traditions have been honored\,\ninterpreted\, and reimagined through art. From cherished objects passed down\nthrough generations to new works created for Jewish life today\, the gallery\ninvites visitors to consider how Judaica can hold memory\, embody ritual\, and\nconnect generations. \n**Artist Spotlight: Danielle Styles** \n**Exhibit Sponsors:**\nDr. Judy Pearl\, Esther Hankin\, Rebecca & Fred Hankin\, Elaine & Michael\nSterling\, Nancy Wanchik\n**Program Sponsor:**\nJudy & Dr. John Marx \n**Registration required** \n**OPEN HOURS DURING EXHIBITS:**\nTuesday: 10 AM – 4 PM\nThursday: 11 AM – 7 PM\nSunday: 12 PM – 4 PM\nAppointments available\n*Visit the website or social media for up-to-date information & holiday closures.\nFor more on exhibits and events\, visit\n(https://charachgallery.org.) \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/17423
