May 9: The Nova Festival Exhibition
Join The Jewish Education Project as we tour the exhibition and then gather as a group to reflect and identify ways to translate the experience for our learners.
The Nova Music Festival Exhibition is an immersive, multimedia installation that pays tribute to the nearly 400 young festivalgoers from around the world who were killed or kidnapped after having come together to celebrate peace, love, and music on 10/7. The Exhibition – the first of its kind in the US – will create a powerful experience using videos and artifacts from the festival, such as bullet-ridden portable toilets and cars, left-behind belongings, and more. To learn more about the Exhibition, please visit the NYT, Times of Israel, and NPR.
