Join Us for an Inspiring Conversation on Creativity & Spirituality!
We welcome Rabbi Alon Ferency as he explores the deep connection between art and faith. A rabbi, spiritual director, and creativity coach, Rabbi Ferency draws on wisdom from many traditions to illuminate how creativity can be a sacred act.
Quoting Sharon Salzberg, he reminds us: "Mindfulness can heal ourselves and the world: Art is activism." He also writes, "The human impulse to create is evidence of the Divine spark within each of us. Far from being at odds, Art and Faith can be partners. I believe Judaism is a practice that transforms heart, mind, and spirit-a sacred journey of self-exploration and service."
Come be inspired, engage in meaningful conversation, and discover how your own creativity can be a path to deeper spirituality.
