Title HOME: Lens on Israel — New Photography Exhibition Takes Intimate Look at Holy Land's Hidden and Diverse Communities

ArticlePress release for the "Home: Lens on Israel" exhibition at Temple Emanu-El's Bernard Museum, April 25 through November 21, 2018.

Marking the 70th anniversary of Israel's founding, the exhibition features the work of seven photographers who journeyed through Israel in November 2016 with the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC).

"The focus of our photographic mission was to celebrate people who are geographically and socially on the periphery in Israel," said Elizabeth Kahane. "By allowing us into their homes and lives, they enabled us to present the hidden greatness of Israel. As artists and human beings we were transformed by this trip."
