Seniors
At Beth Tzedec, we understand the importance of cultivating lasting friendships and maintaining ties to the community, which is why our senior-focused initiatives aim to foster a sense of belonging and provide a supportive network. As Rabbi Steve Wernick has pointed out in his sermons, loneliness is a disease and community is the cure. Join us to connect with like-minded individuals, engage in meaningful activities, and create lasting memories.
Beth Tzedec doubly recognizes the importance of families sharing Jewish experiences together! We’re creating programming that is meaningful and enjoyable for the whole family – children, parents and grandparents. As the largest conservative synagogue in the world, we maintain Jewish traditions across generations, while creating new ones.
Putting Your Stamp on History
A new art installation created by Israeli artist Michelle Shalmiev
Beth Tzedec is proud to present this new art installation created by Israeli artist Michelle Shalmiev and commissioned by Beth Tzedec members David and Leanne Matlow. This 17-piece series is crafted entirely from Israeli postage stamps and tells the story of Israel’s history through vibrant, textured imagery. Come experience the artwork and reflect on how each of us can put our own stamp on history.
This installation will be on display through the High Holy Days. We invite you to visit the Reuben & Helene Dennis Museum to experience the artwork and reflect on how each of us can put our own stamp on history.
Artist's Statement from Michelle Shalmiev:
“I express gratitude for the opportunity to share my art with Canadians and the younger generation, aspiring to inspire others to pursue their calling, express their feelings, and believe in the attainability of their dreams through positive thinking. I remain hopeful that Israel will recover from recent events and stand ready to welcome everyone to discover the generosity, diverse experiences, and the warm embrace of its positive and optimistic culture. There is no other choice but optimism, the very essence of our existence.”
