Student-Led Painting Night

SDSU Hillel’s painting night was a great example of how Hillel is run by students!

Fresh out of an art class, Otis, SDSU class of 2021, spoke up at the beginning of the semester about how much he loves painting! The Hillel staff asked him if he would be interested in hosting a painting night to share his passion for art with others?

25 students later, the event was a big success!

Hillel is truly a space for the students to create programs for their peers based on what they are passionate about and this is an amazing example of that coming to fruition!

On Friday, we celebrated the Melvin Garb Hillel Center’s 10 Year Anniversary at Shabbat with students and some special guests. We hosted a tour of the beautiful center with students who shared how each of the spaces impacted their Jewish experience. Students shared the business plans they created in the Sophie and Arthur Brody Library and the Jewish women’s club, Achayot, explained that they are working to establish an AEPhi Chapter at SDSU in the Harold R.
