Jewish Art Salon members involved in the exhibit;
Curator Tobi Kahn, and artists Barbara Freedman, Sandra Indig, Susan Kaplow, Rachel Kanter, and Vicki Reikes Fox.
Tobi Kahn, the artist and educator who co-founded the program with Rabbi Leon Morris 14 years ago, leads the art class portion of Beit Midrash, while his counterpart, Rabbi Dianne Cohler-Esses, leads the biblical portion. “I like that she thinks out of the box as a Jewish educator,” Kahn says of his colleague. “We always try to find a rabbi who is open to understanding that artists think differently than most other people – they’re visual thinkers.”
