Below are photos of the ceiling above the bima in the Dorff-Nelson Chapel. Conceived and supervised by artist Wanda Peretz in 2018 and executed as a community Hiddur Mitzvah Adult Coloring Project, this tableau honors the unique Jewish folk art that decorated the Prayer Halls of wooden synagogues in 18th Century Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Over 60 members of the Library Minyan assisted in the coloring.
