JMM Monthly Zine: Tishrei 5784

This month’s zine focuses on Tishrei, which goes from September 16 to October 15, 2023.
Tishrei is full of holidays: Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Shemini Atzeret, and Simchat Torah. We are given many opportunities to welcome the Jewish New Year as a community through celebration and reflection.
This month’s zine includes:
- A Place for the Etrog by Aimée Pohl, JMM Reference Assistant
A piece discussing etrogs, the citron fruits used for Sukkot rituals, and shares images of etrog cases from the JMM collections.
- Transforming Sin by Miriam Saperstein from the syllabus project.org.
A short essay exploring the concept of sin in a Jewish context.
- Popping into the Jewish New Year by Naomi Rose Weintraub, Communications & Public Art Coordinator.
A piece featuring 19th Century Rosh Hashana Pop-up Cards from the JMM Collections.
