FOODISH – the Culinary Department of ANU – the Museum of the Jewish People, presents a new and unique ‘pop-up’ exhibition that connects the top chefs and leading figures of Jewish cuisine, with the top Israeli illustrators. On a chef’s coat, that has been repurposed as canvas, each illustrator created a work of art based on the culinary figure’s story. The all participants volunteered for the project and the works will be offered for purchase at a special sale whose proceeds will go towards food therapy activities for evacuees from the north and south of Israel.
