Art is not only for artists. Art is a way of seeing the world, interacting with the world, and creating something that is more useful, more beautiful, more meaningful. We admire and are fascinated by artists and their work because these exemplify what we want our lives to be--beautiful, useful, and meaningful. We are enthralled by the paintings, moved by the music, and transported by the writing that artists create. Some of us might also try our hand at creating art ourselves. But life itself is the greatest art form. We only need to learn to live creatively, deeply, and meaningfully. Art & Soul will explore seven art forms. Each lesson will take its participants on a journey into the very soul of that art-form. Together we will explore the artist’s experience and vision, the role that this art-form plays in Jewish history and teachings, and the way that these can be applied in how we live our lives on a day-to-day basis.
