Ketubahs of Love Art Exhibit & Reception

Date/Time

Location

Bombyx Center for Arts & Equity (130 Pine Street, Florence, MA 01062, Florence MA)

The illuminated Ketubah! An ancient, artistic and proto-feminist Jewish tradition for marriage, signed at the wedding, witnessed by close friends, propped up on an easel at the wedding, and eventually hung in the home (like the four poles of a chuppah wedding canopy) as a daily reminder to the couple to manifest love. At every Jewish wedding, the couple, rabbi, and witnesses sign a document whose words have the power to protect, and whose customized art has the power to soar with the couple's symbolic and heart-centered intentions. Every "Ketubah" tells a story of love. Every Ketubah is designed with intentionality to express the beloveds' inner joy and satisfaction, to support and share who they are and who they become when interwoven with their beloved. In this first-ever community Ketubahs of Love art exhibit, we invite community members to share their own framed Ketubah art with us - from off the wall of their homes and into our art exhibit for the entire February month of Love, with a festive reception on February 9. All are welcome to see, learn, contribute, mingle, and delight in the variation of Ketubah Art designs. If you would like to be part of this creative and meaningful installation by sharing your illuminated Ketubah and story, submit your information here by January 30. The Ketubahs of Love art exhibit will be on display in the Peacock Room throughout community events, celebrations, and a reception on Sunday, February 9.
