SpiralSukkah at Ashkenaz Festival

Architectural designer Jason van der Burg and his team have been invited to display their 2013 People’s Choice Award winning Spiral Sukkah from August 30 to September 1 at the Toronto Harbourfront Centre’s 2014 Ashkenaz Festival. Visitors will be able to explore and walk inside the modern take on the sukkah, a traditional, temporary Jewish dwelling. The Ashkenaz Festival is one of the largest celebrations of Jewish music and culture anywhere in the world. The Kehilla Residential Programme invited the team to display their award-winning project at the festival to promote this year’s Sukkahville 2014 event, taking place October 14–15 at Nathan Phillips Square, where the Spiral Sukkah will also be on display among this year’s finalists.
