Calling all 20s/30s! Introducing a series of art workshops. Led by local artists. Centered on Jewish holidays.
Have you ever decorated a sukkah?
Our first workshop will be led by artist Caron Tabb. This workshop will focus on learning the art of sewing which binds our stories together in more ways than one. Tabb has designed the decorative walls of our sukkah and is inviting us to help stitch it together. No prior experience necessary. This is an opportunity to learn a new craft, connect to the holiday of Sukkot from a new perspective, and meet other young professionals in the city.
For the month of October, Tabb’s sukkah decoration will be part of a public art exhibition called In the Aftermath, part of our fall series which uses art, storytelling and music to help us honor the anniversary of the October 7 attacks.
This program includes an artist-led workshop on the art of sewing, a discussion about the artistic matter itself, and time to mingle and nosh.

Meet the Artist
Caron Tabb was born in apartheid South Africa, raised on a farm in Israel from the age of eight, and has lived in the U.S. for the last twenty years. These key biographical elements and her passion for social justice issues deeply impact her artistic practice. In addition to traditional painting and photography, Caron incorporates many found objects and unconventional materials into her work. Her conceptual mixed-media and instillation art address issues of social inequality, racial justice, and feminism as seen through the lens of her deep Jewish identity.
