Tikkun Olam: Repairing the World

September 7 - December 3
Central Library, Schlessman Hall
Presented by artist Christy Honigman and created in collaboration with the Mizel Museum.

Representing 54 participants from 27 different countries, the Tikkun Olam project illustrates the fundamental truth of our time; the interconnectedness and mutual interdependence of people, regardless of race, ethnicity and experience. The project's participants, many of whom are survivors of torture and exile, showcase their ideas of Tikkun Olam through their unique works of art.

The Tikkun Olam: Repairing the World exhibition serves as the third component of the Mizel Museum's flagship education program, Bridges of Understanding. For further information, contact Christy at 303-522-1402.

The Tikkun Olam Exhibition has been made possible by SCFD, Excel Energy, Rose Foundation, Allied Jewish Federation, Key Bank and Great Plains Moving and Storage.
