Season of Light: Special Holiday Program

by Cleveland Museum of Art

Season of Light explores origins and rituals connected with Christmas, Hanukkah and Diwali, a festival of light celebrated among Hindus, Jains and Sikhs. These celebrations and commemorations fall late in the year and often make use of light. In the program students view and discuss illuminated manuscripts, Indian sculptures and other votive objects from The Cleveland Museum of Art as well as menorahs from the collection of Temple Tiffereth Israel.
