Holy Blossom Goes to the Nova Exhibit
Sunday, May 18, 2:00 pm
Together as a Holy Blossom community, we will visit this harrowing exhibit, and find comfort and strength in one another as we remember October 7, and the festival which became an epicentre of horror on that terrible day.
We will take the opportunity to commemorate and debrief together following our exhibit tour, and in that way, support each other.
Please note that the Exhibition is recommended for ages 12+ due to the sensitive and graphic nature of some of the content. We further recommend that children between 12-16 years old are accompanied by a trusted adult.

ABOUT THE EXHIBIT
Visitors will travel on a timeline of the Nova Music Festival on October 7th, telling the story of the events on that dreadful day. A carefully-crafted mosaic of information, evidence, and emotion. The remains of joy, which now serves as bleak evidence of the sharp contrast between revered values and the cruel sting of the reality of that day. We invite you to walk through the winding path from the depths of pain and loss to the threshold of action, the healing and the hope of the community. The events on that black Saturday will be presented as a shocking contrast between light and darkness, good and evil, that is relevant to the entire world.
The installation creates a sacred space echoing the weight of the victims’ and survivors’ memories, surrounded by remains salvaged from the festival grounds—scorched cars, bullet-riddled bathroom stalls, and personal belongings all left behind. Visitors will be invited to join a plea for the safe return of the hostages who are still held in captivity by Hamas terrorists. Nova survivors of the brutal attack will be attending as witnesses to the tragedy they experienced on that day. Beyond the brutality and evil that occurred on October 7, the exhibition will capture the enduring spirit of the Tribe of Nova with the installation of the healing room. This sanctuary is intended for visitors to mend their spirits, reflect, and find solace after bearing witness to the harrowing events of The Nova Music Festival. Hanging tall and bright is the hopeful plea that “We will dance again”.
