In this intergenerational program drawn from the Jewish Grandparents Network Family Room, families share their stories with one another and with the community through a creative art experience. Based on the work of Israeli artist Hanoch Piven, families use found objects in their home to make family portraits that express their family's culture and personalities.

Ideal for grandparents to take the lead.

This guide includes everything you need: materials, room set-up, timing, facilitator script, links to resources on JGN website, and follow-up.
