A Unique Approach to Jewish Culture

Judaism has a rich artistic tradition, dating back more than 3500 years. Jewish artworks not only have their own intrinsic value as visual art but also are a living expression of the Jewish experience. Yet, this wonderful expression of Jewish life is underappreciated and seldom examined.

Through our expertise, Jewish Art Education will bring this complex and rich Jewish art experience to the screen, in a documentary film that will broaden everyone's understanding of the Jewish world and instill new pride in the Jewish people.

At the center of this project is noted art educator Myrna Teck, PhD, who is dedicated to increasing and disseminating knowledge of the Jewish people through the fascinating story of Jewish art. Over history, it has both inspired and impacted the Jewish experience.

This is an important film project offering every person a unique entry into the richness of the 3500 year-old Jewish culture.
