Annie is currently a participant on the WUJS Arts program. Before arriving in Israel Annie was a coordinator and teacher at the Visual Arts Summer Institute at Boston University. "When I was in my senior year of college and deciding what direction I wanted my life to take, I could not ignore the fact that Jewish identity and my prior experiences in Israel were integrated into my art work. Both my parents had taken time out of their careers to spend time in Israel and I could see the major impact it had on their lives. It took me no time to realize that this was the year for me to spend learning and creating in the most amazing country in the world, Eretz Yisrael". Annie is a visual artist and will be exhibiting her work in the Hadassah Art Gallery  located at the Mercaz Hamagshimim in Jerusalem.

 

The exhibition opens on Janurary 1, 2009 at 8:00pm. If you would like more information about the Hadassah Art Gallery please click  Here.
