Mysticism and Chassidic thought teach us that the Alef Beit are the building blocks of creation. The energy behind all existence is expressed through each letter.
The Lubavitcher Rebbe taught us that “an artist has a unique ability to perceive the essence of each thing, and in turn to be able to convey this in his painting. Thus the object is revealed as it has never before been seen, since its inner content was obscured by secondary things.”
This exhibit shows the artists’ unique expressions, through many media, of the essence of the world’s existence. What could be more exciting?
Gallery hours: Tuesday-Thursday from 1-6 PM excluding religious holidays. “Aleph Beit: The Building Blocks of Creation” Art Exhibition” will run March 5- April 29th, 2010. For information about artist opportunities at OCJAC and classes, please call Sherry at 215-923-1222.

The website of multi-award-winning playwright Duncan Pflaster and Cross-Eyed Bear Theatre Productions
"If there's a thing, a scene, maybe, an image that you want to see real bad, that you need to see but it doesn't exist in the world around you, at least not in the form you envision, then you create it so you can look at it and have it around, or show it to other people who wouldn't have imagined it because they perceive reality in a more shallow, predictable way. And that's it. That's all an artist does."-Tom Robbins, Skinny Legs and All
