Installation of public art in Chase Park on Nov. 12

This week marked one month since the attack on Israeli citizens and since the 240 hostages were brutally taken by Hamas. In an effort to honor the lives of the hostages and show support for the Jewish community in Scarsdale, the village of Scarsdale will place a temporary art installation in Chase Park titled “Ohr: A Garden of Light and Strength.” In Hebrew, “ohr” (אור) means “light.”

Residents of Scarsdale are invited Sunday, Nov. 12, at 1:30 to 3 p.m., for “a gathering of hope, peace, and reflection" to unveil the new artwork and hear remarks from community leaders.

The artwork created by Scarsdale resident and artist Simone Kestelman features 240 blue and white orbs along with photographs representing the 240 innocent lives that were forever changed the morning of Oct. 7. The art installation was commissioned by representatives from Scarsdale’s Jewish community as a gift to the village of Scarsdale.

Kestelman said the installation design was inspired by her father’s words: “My father always said to me that what defines us is not who hates us, but who loves us and who we love.”
