THE POWER OF THE TALLIT

Diane Fredgant's beautiful hand-painted silk Tallitot will be featured at Oregon Jewish Museum on Sunday, March 18th in conjunction with a talk by author Ruth Tenzer Feldman. The two women will conduct a parent & teen program about the transformative aspects of the tallit (prayer shawl). If you've ever seen Diane's silk work, or heard her speak about the process of creating it, you know this will be a meaningful and moving afternoon.

Sunday, March 18, 2012 at 2:00 pm
The event is free with membership or museum admission.

OVER 60 isn't OVER THE HILL!






Geezer Gallery features artwork created by artists over the age of 60. The name is a little controversial...and that is a good thing! Our stereotypes of the elder community is all wrong and the contents of this gallery prove it!

March is Jewish Arts Month. ORA artists are guests of the gallery and we are so excited to present our new works there! YES, some of our members are Geezers...and some are Geezers in waiting!

The gallery is filled with gorgeous art! Join us for our special opening on Thursday March 8th.
Come to the Gallery in Multnomah Village between 6-9pm - 7710 SW 31st ( in the Loaves & Fishes Building)

See beautiful art and sample some delicious beer (Ambacht) brewed by our friend Tom Kramer.
