Sukkot Collage Workshops: Welcoming Our Ancestors

September 23–27

Center for Small Town Jewish Life, Beth Israel Congregation, Colby Arts Office, Waterville Creates, and Mid Maine Adult Ed

Various locations

Join us in creating decor for the municipal Sukkah, which will be located in Castonguay Square during Sukkot, the Jewish Harvest Festival October 16–23. At these free workshops you’ll learn to create a one-of-a-kind collage with meaningful pictures and symbols representative of your history and home in Waterville. We will later combine your collage with others and hang it as a tapestry inside the Sukkah.

We honor and celebrate the array of identities in our local community and broader communities, including those that are not part of the predominant culture. We hold space on our stage, our screens, and our gallery walls, in our studios, and at our community events and programs to present diverse stories, identities, and lived experiences in real and authentic ways.
