Innovative and Unique Judaica for Sale at HUC-JIR

"Living in the Moment" presents innovative and unique works of Jewish ceremonial art designed for virtually every moment of Jewish living: the life cycle, the yearly holiday and festival cycle, the familial practice of Judaism in the home, and communal and synagogue-based celebrations and commemorations. Created by internationally recognized artists working in silver, ceramic, glass, textile, wood, and other media, these one-of-a-kind and limited edition works and special artist commissions are available for sale. In sanctifying life and religious practice, these ceremonial objects beautify the fulfillment of the commandments of the Torah and strengthen Jewish faith, heritage, and commitment for generations to come.
