About this Curriculum
Between the Lines, Beyond the Page - Jewish Texts Intersecting with Creative Arts takes learners on a journey through creating an artistic interpretation of a biblical text. By exploring biblical texts together, focusing specifically on Shirat HaYam as the quintessential art infused text, and informed by the Four Lenses of Meaning-Making, participants become aware that Jewish texts offer more than halakhic or moral authority and art is about more than pure aesthetics.
This curriculum guide was written by Rabbi Lily Kowalski, 2016 graduate of HUC School of Education. It was intended for high schoolers in a religious school setting, but is easily adaptable for other settings.
