y the end of the day, the little
bits of frustration and sorrow
— a misunderstanding with a
friend, unkind words from a colleague,
disappointment at a failed opportunity
— have taken their toll.
A paintbrush may be the answer.
"The purpose of art:' said Pablo
Picasso, "is washing the dust of daily
life off our souls."
The Jewish Community Center of
Metropolitan Detroit is offering the
community the opportunity to wash
"the dust of daily life" off their souls by
working together to create a beautiful
mural from noon-3 p.m. Thursday,
April 11, at the JCC in Oak Park.
"The Colors of Kindness:' presented
by the JCC's The Active Life (TAL)
department, gives everyone a chance
to help complete a mural to be kept
on permanent exhibit at the Oak Park
JCC. Artist Daniel Cascardo, whose
works have appeared on everything
from pizza boxes to sculptures, will
create the outlines of a painting to be
completed by those in attendance.
The idea for the program was
inspired by the Kindness Project, an
initiative of the JCC and Partners in

Honigman Miller Schwartz & Cohn LLP, Carolyn and

Larry Tisdale, Randie Levin, Sharona Shapiro

All Sponsors will be listed on the Program

actions.
"When JCC staff was asked by
[Kindness Project Director] Rabbi
Tzvi Muller and [JCC Executive
Director] Mark Lit to have each of our
departments come up with a kind-
ness project, I decided I wanted to
do something meaningful that would
involve the entire community and
have a lasting effect, such as a mural,
which people would see and enjoy for
a long time says TAL Director Noemi
Herzig.
"Also, I was thinking of a proj-
ect where people would be actively
involved, and that they would be
proud of, especially if they had never
done anything artistic before:'
Herzig remembered meeting an art-
ist named Daniel Cascardo.
She gave him a call.
Cascardo's art is bright and bold and
elegant and fun, and he had created
exactly the kind of program Herzig
wanted.
"The program that I call Cascardo's
Art Action Experience is a new art
form where I combine the contribu-
tions of many people in creating
a unique work of art:' Cascardo
explains. "I am the art director or 'con-
