Waltuch Gallery at the Kaplen JCC On the Palisades Presents ‘Art for All’

In recognition of Jewish Disabilities and Inclusion Awareness Month, nationally celebrated in February each year, the Waltuch Gallery at the Kaplen JCC on the Palisades is hosting its annual art exhibition that features the artistic talents and accomplishments of a wide range of individuals in our community. This year, more than 220 pieces were submitted from 13 different schools and programs, including participants in the JCC’s Guttenberg Center for Special Services programs. Works include framed drawings and paintings, as well as ceramics, sculptures, 3D printing, photography and more. Each piece showcases the creative talents of school-aged children, teens, and adults who are differently abled. The exhibit will be available for viewing February 2-28 with a free opening reception on Sunday, February 9, 1-3 pm.

“Art for All’ celebrates not only the creative, artistic talents of these individuals, but also the spirit of inclusion that we here at the JCC pride ourselves on,” said Shelley Levy, director of the Guttenberg Center for Special Services.

The Gallery, which is free and open to the community, keeps the following hours: Monday-Thursday, 9 a.m-10 p.m.; Friday and Sunday, 9 a.m.-4 p.m.; closed Saturday. For more information, please contact Shelley Levy at 201-408-1489.
