Gut Yontif: A Patchwork Holiday Experience

On Sunday, Oct. 20, Cohen will be delivering a two-hour artistic performance inspired by the themes and historic significance of the Sukkot holiday.

Enter a sculptural Sukkah (a temporary hut-like structure built during Sukkot) where visitors can participate in Cohen’s celebration of the autumn harvest.

Inspired by the rich colors, textures, and life stories showcased in the Louise Silk: A Patchwork Life exhibition, the Gut Yontif: A Patchwork Holiday Experience series invites emerging artists to reimagine the themes of Sukkot, Chanukah, Tu B’Shvat, and Purim in new works of art.

Often said after the evening service that marks the start of a Jewish holiday, Gut Yontif is a Yiddish greeting that means “have a good holiday!”

Experience these holidays like never before through their unique artistic lenses.

This program is supported through a grant from the SteelTree Fund of the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh.
