The Relevance of Music to Israeli Society with Composer Oded Zehavi

Description

In the wake of the October 7, 2023 terror attacks in Israel, the entire country has been reeling from direct and unintended consequences. One such is the reduction of opportunities for individuals and institutions in the creative arts community.

“CIAC Presents” is an initiative that will support Israeli artists during this time of limited opportunities. It will allow artists to discuss and share their work, strengthening the connection between Israeli artists and the Cleveland community during times of crisis.

Join Composer Oded Zehavi as he discusses how music has affected the Israeli psyche and how its relevance has changed since October 7. Linda Sandhaus, CIAC advisory committee member, will moderate the conversation.

Light lunch will be served
