Community Canvas at The J is our signature collaborative art project, bringing together local organizations to explore Jewish values through creativity while strengthening community connections. Each year, we highlight a Jewish value and ask local nonprofits to interpret its meaning artistically. We then host an exhibit of all the artworks, inviting the community to contemplate the chosen value while learning about the missions of various Birmingham organizations. This year, our theme is L’dor V’dor | From Generation to Generation, celebrating the passing of knowledge, tradition, and values across generations. How does your organization embody this idea? What stories, lessons, or visions do you hope to pass on? Join us for the gallery open with original works of art from various area non profits interpreting L'dor V'dor. Have a glass of wine, a bite of cheese, and enter a shared dialogue about legacy, impact, and community. 

Join us for the 49th running of the Sam Lapidus Montclair Run, a Thanksgiving tradition and one of Birmingham's largest races.
