Contemporary Jewish Museum Descriptive & Haptic Tour (in-person)


Jul 7

How can art contribute to creating a more just and empathetic world? How might artists draw from their identity, culture, and heritage to inspire fresh perspectives on tradition? Join us for a thought-provoking in-person tour of "Cara Levine: To Survive I Need You to Survive" as we shed light on Jewish tradition and rituals, examining them through the prism of contemporary art, and connect to current social issues. We will explore artworks that delve into concepts of grief, the life cycle, and interconnectedness with our community and environment.

In addition to verbal descriptions, this tour will provide a unique opportunity to engage with art through touch and sound.
After the tour, stay around for an optional art activation inspired by the works experienced in the tour.

The CJM is opening their doors early to offer private time for our group to explore the galleries, so please arrive by 10:00 so we may all be let in together.

The museum is located at 736 Mission Street between fourth and third streets, across from Yerba Buena Gardens with BART and Muni access at Powell Street.

RSVP by July 5 to Maia Scott at: Mscott@lighthouse-sf.org or 415-694-7608.
