KOL YISRAEL EVENTS
First Jewish Museum & Cultural Festival of the Hudson Valley – Sunday, September 18, 2022. The KOL Yisrael Joint Programming Committee invites the community to submit items for curation for the first Jewish Museum of the Hudson Valley at a campus-wide event. Examples of items to submit include but are not limited to Jewelry, Family heirlooms, and Artifacts of significance. We will publicly display these items in a secure room in the building on that day. Owners can stand next to their displays to share the history and meaning with museum guests. Security will be provided to ensure the safety of the presenters and artifacts. If the presenter prefers, a photograph of the item can be displayed instead of the actual item. Please submit a picture and brief description of your item for consideration to https://www.congregationagudasisrael.org/jewish-museum-submissions.html Final decisions will be made by 8/15/22.
