This class examines the processes of modernity--including the emergence of enlightenment philosophy, liberalism, and mercantilism -- and their impact on individual and communal Jewish life in Germany, France, and Russia.

Glass is a medium that is inextricably linked to the technical skills that its maker possesses. The mastery of the process enables glass artists and artisans to make pieces that are truly extraordinary, whether they be blown, etched, or fused. These techniques will be on display at “Sand 'n Fire: The Wonder of Glass” as we showcase local Jewish artists who express their creativity through this malleable material. Featuring artists Garry Cohen, Leslie Perlis, Ilanit Shalev, James Stone, and Keith Wahl.
