Join Rabbi Shankman & Cantor Bortnick Tuesday, June 24 at 5:00 pm for a visit inside the powerful NOVA Music Festival Exhibition in Northwest D.C. (713 7th St. NW). This moving and immersive experience, open for a short time only, tells the story of the impact and aftermath of the October 7 attack in Israel. The installation creates a sacred space echoing the weight of the victims’ and survivors’ memories, surrounded by remains salvaged from the festival grounds — scorched cars, bullet-riddled bathroom stalls, and personal belongings left behind.
