Disorientation as Worship: A Different (Re)view of the Dura-Europos Synagogue

Karen Stern, Professor of History, Brooklyn College

Thursday, March 9, 2023
5:30 pm

Chapel of the Holy Innocents
The synagogue discovered in Dura Europos in 1932/1933 shocked archaeologists, scholars of ancient Syria, and students of ancient Jewish history. The interior fac;ade of the assembly hall of the building was preserved to an unprecedented degree, projecting color- ful paintings of stories from the Hebrew Bible, including images of Pharoah's daughter rescuing a baby Moses from a basket in the Nile. Existence of these murals both advanced the efforts of excavators and historians who sought to understand ancient life in Dura and transformed studies of art history more generally, by challenging a longstanding allegation that Jews, historically, were a "people without art." Scholars of past decades have followed suit, continuing to emphasize the paintings from the assembly hall at the expense of other documented findings from the synagogue. This talk, however, takes a different approach. By drawing renewed attention to additional artifacts from the building, including burial deposits, amuletic ceiling tiles, and ancient graffiti, it suggests that there is more to the synagogue than that which initially meets the eye.Sponsored by: Art History and Visual Culture Program; Classical Studies Program; Interdisciplinary Study of Religions Program; Middle Eastern Studies Program.

Bard Farm Screening of Fantastic Fungi with John Michelotti

Fantastic Fungi is a consciousness-shifting film about the mycelium network that takes us on an immersive journey through time and scale into the magical earth beneath our feet, an underground network that can heal and save our planet.

Monday, March 27, 2023
6:45–9 pm

Olin, Room 102
John Michelotti is the founder of Catskill Fungi which empowers people with fungi through outdoor educational classes, cultivation courses, mushroom art, and mushroom health extracts. John is a former President of the Mid-Hudson Mycological Association (MHMA). He serves as Medicinal Mushroom Committee Chair and is a Poison Control Consultant for the North American Mycological Association. He was chosen by the Catskill Center as a "Steward of the Catskills" for his contribution to the environment. John has had the pleasure to engage students from Elementary Schools to Colleges and Universities. He has taught at the New York Botanical Gardens for the past 8 years and regularly presents to Mycological Associations across the country. He served on the Mushroom Advisory Panel for Certified Naturally Grown to develop ecological standards in mushroom production across North America and has taught the Wild Mushroom Food Safety Certification Course to certify foragers to sell wild mushrooms to restaurants and supermarkets in 13 states. His goal is to educate and inspire people to pair with fungi to improve the environment, their health, and communities.

Catskill Fungi
Catskill Fungi produces high integrity, triple-extracted health tinctures from mushrooms that are wild- crafted or grown near our family farm in the Catskill Mountains. We enjoy sharing our love of mushrooms on our guided mushroom walks, medicinal and cultivation workshops, and our fungi retreats. Catskill Fungi has a foundation of permaculture principles. This means the core of our business is about helping people and improving the planet through our work with mushrooms. We practice sustainable harvesting, leave-no-trace principles, and compassion for the environment. We aim to empower people to grow edible mushrooms as a sustainable source of fresh food, to heal themselves through utilizing health properties of fungi, and to explore the historical uses and present day innovations of these essential fungi.Sponsored by: Bard Farm.

John Michelotti is the founder of Catskill Fungi which empowers people with fungi through outdoor educational classes, cultivation courses, mushroom art, and mushroom health extracts. John is a former President of the Mid-Hudson Mycological Association (MHMA). He serves as Medicinal Mushroom Committee Chair and is a Poison Control Consultant for the North American Mycological Association. He was chosen by the Catskill Center as a "Steward of the Catskills" for his contribution to the environment.

He has taught at the New York Botanical Gardens for the past 8 years and regularly presents to Mycological Associations across the country. He served on the Mushroom Advisory Panel for Certified Naturally Grown to develop ecological standards in mushroom production across North America and has taught the Wild Mushroom Food Safety Certification Course to certify foragers to sell wild mushrooms to restaurants and supermarkets in 13 states. His goal is to educate and inspire people to pair with fungi to improve the environment, their health, and communities.

Catskill Fungi
Catskill Fungi produces high integrity, triple-extracted health tinctures from mushrooms that are wild- crafted or grown near our family farm in the Catskill Mountains. We enjoy sharing our love of mushrooms on our guided mushroom walks, medicinal and cultivation workshops, and our fungi retreats. Catskill Fungi has a foundation of permaculture principles. This means the core of our business is about helping people and improving the planet through our work with mushrooms. We practice sustainable harvesting, leave-no-trace principles, and compassion for the environment. We aim to empower people to grow edible mushrooms as a sustainable source of fresh food, to heal themselves through utilizing health properties of fungi, and to explore the historical uses and present day innovations of these essential fungi.Sponsored by: Bard Farm.
