Impact through Art and Fashion on Sustainability & Social Justice: A Virtual Tour @ Zoom
Feb 10 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Can art, fashion and design make a change in the world? How can we use creativity as a tool to empower subgroups in Israel, and can these groups change and inspire the “Israeli mainstream”?

In this engaging program, we will virtually meet Israeli artists and designers who are dedicated to galvanizing minorities in Israel and to strengthen Israeli society as a whole with their art and heart. This is a unique opportunity to dive deeper into Israeli culture and to learn about the different identities within Israel.

Co-sponsors: Congregation Neveh Shalom’s Israel360, PDX Hillel, and PSU’s CHAI
