Date & Time of Workshop: Mon. Jan. 9, 2023 1:45-3:15pm MT
In this fun and interactive session we'll learn together how to "string pearls" -- juxtaposing old and new and creatively allowing new insights to emerge from the alchemy of new patterns. We'll do our own midrash and look at classic ones, and see how contemporary artists do their own midrash as well. In troubled times, we need to renew the old in order to come up with the holy ideas needed to get us to our next paradigm shift.
