Beth Sholom Synagogue. The restoration and preservation of its furniture.

Welcome.

About a year ago, I was discussing this with a client of mine of over 30 years, about the work at the synagogue. His only comment was: ”Remember, this is the only one of its kind in the world.”

As we begin the restoration of the furniture, that statement lives inside of me. I have visited the synagogue several times, taken photos, inspected the furniture, taken notes to develop a plan and approach to best serve the intent of Wrights design.

It is my honor to be tasked to restore this important American legacy. We will be creating a visual and descriptive journal as we move through the process. For the congregation, the friends of the synagogue and all others that have interest in restoration.
