NOVA Trip – Mission of Memory

JewishColumbus, thanks to the generosity of Abigail and Leslie Wexner, invites you to a day trip to The Nova Music Festival Exhibit in Toronto, Canada. Members of Torat Emet, Temple Beth Shalom, Ahavas Sholom, Beth Tikvah and Temple Israel will make this powerful journey together. This is a rare opportunity to comprehend the unprecedented tragedy of 10/7, a day that shattered our understanding of our place in the world more fully.

The group will travel on a charter flight for an exclusive and personalized visit to the exhibit. This extraordinary memorial honors those murdered, taken hostage, wounded, or who survived the terror attack at the Nova Festival on the morning of October 7. We will bear witness to salvaged artifacts, unedited footage of the day’s shocking events and personal testimonies. We will share in a moving and unforgettable experience that ultimately speaks to remembrance and resilience. Rabbis Zack, Bar-Lev, Gabay, Kellner and Cantor Moses will lead us in a memorial prior to our departure.
