THE ART OF PASSOVER is a comprehensive look at the art and artistry associated with Judaism's favorite holiday. A one-hour fully narrated program of 55 art objects related to Passover. Art educator Myrna Teck, PhD, with traditional music, covers the work over the centuries, from 6th century painted walls, to modern seder plates and paintings. A wonderful way to start the holiday and bring a fresh approach to old traditions.
