Our programs and projects connect Jewish artists with each other and the public with Jewish artists. We believe that the arts and artists are essential interpreters of the times, serving as portals to new and expansive ways of thinking about and experiencing Jewish life in this moment. Art/Lab’s vision manifests as a fellowship cohort for contemporary Jewish artists, an art gallery exclusively for Pacific Northwest Jewish artists, exhibitions, arts workshops and other public programs and dialogues. 

The Art/Lab Fellowship Cohort is our flagship program. The Art/Lab cohort experience inspires new artistic works while redefining what Jewish art, culture and community can be.

Art/Lab began in 2021 as an artist fellowship within Co/Lab: Reimagine Jewish, a project founded by Rabbi Josh Rose. Today, we are an independent organization shaping the future of Jewish arts and culture in Portland and beyond. Art/Lab is a vibrant, safe and inclusive hub where art, artists, and community converge—inviting each other to grow as culture bearers engaged with Jewish text, theology, history, politics, and tradition.
