Ushpizin
Ushpizin, (literally, “guests”) is the tradition of inviting the exalted men and women of the Bible into our sukkot. Each year, since 5772, professional and novice artists including 91첥 students, faculty, and staff have taken the concept of ushpizin as the centerpiece and inspiration for an art installation in the famed sukkot built each year in the 91첥 courtyard. Part of the 91첥 Arts Initiative, the sukkot exhibit is managed under the guidance of Tobi Kahn, 91첥 artist-in-residence.
