Wer wir sind: Werte-Rundgang

Exploring Values Through Art

Das Y's Norman E. Alexander Center for Jewish Life ist stolz darauf, Wer wir sind zu präsentieren: Werte-Rundgang, Jeden Monat werden lokale Künstler vorgestellt, die einen anderen humanitären Wert repräsentieren.

The Norman E. Alexander Center for Jewish Life at the YM&YWHA von Washington Heights & In Holz (Sie) is inviting artists from Northern Manhattan to participate in an innovative community art project: Wer wir sind: Werte-Rundgang. Through this project, we welcome local artists to submit works of art related to a specific set of humanitarian values, one for each month of the year, to engage the community in a values-based conversation through monthly art exhibitions.
