It has been stated since the beginning of the modern city of Modi’in, that 60% of the population are academic, but the percentage of arts and crafts people has not been known. There are very many talented and skilled artisans living in Modi’in; it would be interesting to have data. Some of them showed their work at the recent Hadassah-Israel Levonah Arts and Crafts event.
Participants were:
Dianne Bekritzky, Painter and Maker of Papercuts
Nurit Ben Aharon, Contemporary Paintings
Carole Cahm, Artist in acrylics and oil
Sima and Allan Greenberg, representing their son’s creations made out of broken wedding glasses
Ruth and Douglas Guthrie, Photography and products made with photographs
Rachel Inbar, Woodturned products
Marilyn Libman, Watercolour artist
Roni bat Shaul, Kohanim Artist in Glassware
Terry Mischel, Quilting and Fabric Crafts
Naomi Persky, Functional and Decorative Pottery
Sharon Young, Functional and Decorative Ceramics
It was an exhibition of high standards of work, and a welcome social gathering.
Member Janice Waldman had arranged welcome refreshments, which were donated by Bonnie Bachenheimer in memory of the late Mimi Nadelbach.
Most importantly, with additional raffle prizes, it was a successful fundraiser for Hadassah-Israel.
