Throughout the evening, a visual artist - working alongside the actors and musician - created new paper cut works inspired by, and intersecting with, the stories and sounds being offered. In total, these presentations were attended by approximately 950 people. We also continued the dybbukast, offering a fourth season of the podcast and online learning experience, that utilizes a combination of performed readings and interviews with artists and scholars to bring the creative works generated, read, and listened to in diasporic jewish communities to life, all while revealing their relationships to issues still present today. The show is available for download on podcast platforms and our website. A wide array of learning resources are available on our website. The podcasts episodes were downloaded or listened to in this fiscal year alone more than 30,000 times. All public engagements were offered at low or no-cost to the public.”
