A FLOWING THROUGH TIME AND TRADITION PROGRAM

Stop by the Magnes to view Flowing through Time and Tradition on the first day the museum’s newest exhibition is open to the public.

Thursday, August 28, 2025 | 11:00 am – 7:00 pm

In person at the Magnes Collection of Jewish Art and Life, 2121 Allston Way, Berkeley, CA

Exploring the theme of water through the holdings of the Magnes Collection, Flowing through Time and Tradition traces how water flows through and shapes Jewish lives: enacting belief, sustaining life and communities, providing the means for spiritual cleansing, and mapping identities.

Also on view: An Archive of Archives: Roman Vishniac’s Exhibition History | New York, 1971-72 and Time Capsules: Exploring the Permanent Collection.

If you have any questions about accessibility or require accommodations to participate in this event, please contact us at magnes@berkeley.edu or call us at (510) 643-2526 with as much advance notice as possible.
