In the week before Passover, a nine-foot interpretive seder plate will stand in the most public-facing space on campus, inviting the entire Harvard community into conversation about Jewish life, identity and culture.
Created by local Jewish artist Michael Mittelman in partnership with Harvard Hillel, The People’s Plate draws on stories from students, faculty and alumni across the Harvard Jewish community. Each element of the sculpture represents a different expression of Jewish identity, transforming one of Judaism’s most recognizable symbols into a work of public art that is both deeply personal and open to all.
Come see it. Come talk about it. Come be part of it.
