HILLEL AT UCLA ART EXHIBITIONS 

Three art exhibitions are on display at Hillel at UCLA. “Seek My Face: The Art of Joshua Meyer, 2000-2016” features the work of Lubbock, Texas-born oil painter Joshua Meyer.

Later, she studied printmaking at UCLA and photography at Santa Monica College. She has been an artist for six decades, and has had 25 solo shows and exhibited in more than 100 group shows. The exhibition “The German Roots of Zionism” explores the dream of refuge from anti-Semitism, freedom from despots, and a place for Jewish religion and culture to flourish. 10 a.m to 4 p.m. Monday-Friday.
