Want to be part of another meaningful art installation at Havurah? Let's gather and get Creative for the Climate! We will be knitting, crocheting, weaving, etc. a tapestry that tracks the temperature during different times in history up to the present for Portland, Oregon. Coordinating colors, we will make stripes representing the temperature. For example, red for the hottest and purple or blue for the coldest, with other colors representing in-between temps. Using weather data, we will make rows that designate the high temperature for that day in Portland. We will meet at Havurah in person and then right after virtually to get started together. 

The initial meeting will be during Elul, to begin the project. Judi will provide the yarn, which will be provided on a sliding scale fee per person. Subsequent meetings and locations will be determined at the first meeting, creating a fiber arts circle for this project and future ones.

Let's begin the new year with creativity and awareness of the climate changes. I hope you'll join us.

P.S. You don't have to be a knitter, crocheter or weaver. This can be a very simple project and beginners are welcome.

Led by Judi Soloway.

Payment is on a sliding scale. Please pay what you can. Reach out to Judi Soloway for questions.
 

Elul Tov!

This event is being offered as part of Havurah Shalom’s celebration of the Hebrew month of Elul! As Elul precedes Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, we use this time for study, reflection, and mental and spiritual preparation. All are invited to attend our gatherings, which span spiritual, text-based, political, ecological and creative topics. We hope you will find them enriching, fun, moving, and worthwhile. You can find the full list of classes here, or see the calendar. For questions about this programming, please reach out to Rachel Pollak.
