TABERNACLE: antizionist jewish maker's market
SPIEL:
We are a collective of anti-zionist Jewish artists seeking to create a local craft market rooted in care for makers and solidarity with Palestine. Inundated by mass-produced schlock, we lust for care-full ritual objects and handmade art crafted in the diaspora. We crave a thriving craft economy that roots us to this land and weakens the economic and cultural dominance of genocidal nation-states. We seek to sew the seeds of slowness and beauty to enhance our capacities to struggle for collective liberation. We desire space to gather & conspire as we forge Judiasms beyond Zionism
In the Torah, the Tabernacle, or Mishkan, was a portable dwelling space adorned with intricate crafts and stewarded with devotion. Against the Zionist logic that Jewish divinity must be found on the lands of historic Palestine, the Tabernacle offers a Diasporic alternative, an invitation to thriving cultures of solidarity and prayer rooted wherever we may find ourselves.
Today, Tabernacle is an anti-zionist Jewish makers market and craft festival that will be held on December 15, 2024/14 Kislev 5785. Among the many items on sale, you can expect handcrafted candles and ritual Judaica, garments and fiberwork, food, music, prints, and other artwork featuring themes and symbology of our diverse Judaisms and struggles for liberation.
TICKETS:
To attend the market, attendees must purchase a sliding-scale ticket (paid by venmo or cash at the door), the cost of which will be 100% donated to mutual aid efforts supporting those impacted by the ongoing genocide in Palestine and Lebanon. In addition to entry into the market, your ticket will enter you into a raffle to win one of a number of pieces donated by vendors. Vendors will otherwise be selling their own work to support themselves.
$7 - Mitzvah - attendance + 1 raffle ticket
$18 - Mensch - attendance + 2 raffle tickets
$36 - Melech - attendance + 3 raffle tickets
$72 - Shechinah - attendance + 4 raffle tickets
Please RSVP so we can be ready to host you and let our vendors know how many people we may expect!
ACCESSIBILITY:
The event will be mostly outdoors, with a few vendors in an indoor space where big doors will be open for airflow. We'll require masks indoors for the entirety of the event, as well as outdoors for the first two hours (11-1) to ensure accessibility. The event will be in a spacious, mostly flat backyard, with some tree roots and rocky paths. There are two steps to get into the building. If you have accessibility needs or questions, please reach out to us on our Instagram.
