The 2019 Jewish Street Art Festival took place as part of the 2019 Jerusalem Biennale in October and November. We partnered with First Station (Tachana Rishona), the Artists’ Colony (Hutzot Hayotzer), and the Schechter Institute in the heart of Jerusalem to create site-specific pieces at all three locations.
Due to travel restrictions, we reimagined the 2020 Festival as a way to bring art to our local communities. Our artists each painted Chanukah murals in their own cities for eight murals around the US and Canada.
The Jewish Street Art Festival presented a series of murals as a part of Dwelling in a Time of Plagues, a coast-to-coast Jewish artistic response to contemporary plagues. The works for Dwelling in a Time of Plagues reinterpret the themes of Passover in response to our times.
