Kol Hadavod has been singing together since 1998 and is under the direction of Rhoda Gaylis. The choir is not affiliated with any synagogue or religious movement, but subscribes to Jewish traditions. In addition to the concert, guests will have the opportunity to view the exhibitions, FABRIC OF SURVIVAL: The Art of Esther Nisenthal Krinitz and Institutional Wellbeing: An Olfactory plan for Oceanside Museum of Art.
FABRIC OF SURVIVAL: The Art of Esther Nisenthal Krinitz, opens on June 14, 2009 and runs through October 25, 2009. Esther Nisentahl Krinitz was a teenager in rural Poland when the Nazis invaded her quiet village changing her life forever. Separated from her family and hiding in the forest, Esther survived the Holocaust and eventually fled with her new husband to America. At age 50, Mrs. Krinitz decided to tell her story in cloth, stitching thirty-six beautiful and poignant appliqué and embroidered panels which comprise the exhibition.
