WELCOME
Stars in the Arts is pleased to announce the launch of a new initiative in the art world! Our mission is to create a vibrant community where Jewish and Israeli artists can come together to support Israel, raise anti-Semitism awareness, foster mutual support, celebrate our Jewishness, and spread love through the transformative power of art.
Get ready to be inspired! We are so excited to announce that tickets for our brand-new show, Identity, are officially available. Grab yours and join us for an experience designed to spark your imagination and celebrate the unique stories that define us. We can't wait to share this beautiful exhibition with you!
We are excited to announce our new Call For Art.
IDENTITY is something shaped by memory and constantly evolving. Memory connects us to our personal and collective past, while becoming reflects who we are still in the process of unfolding into.
We invite artists to reflect on the space between heritage and transformation—what we carry, and what we are still becoming.
How Art Is Helping Tikvah House in Palm Beach
“Illuminating Voices” travelled to Palm Beach at the end of December 2025. The event was a great success. To view the collection please click on poster.
We were proud to present “Illuminating Voices” at the Aqua Art Show during Miami Basel Art Week in 2025, showcasing Jewish and Israeli artists whose works reflect powerful stories, cultural identity, and contemporary expression., including a special presentation by Esek that brings us works created by Nova survivors.
Stars In The Arts went to Miami for Art Basel Week.
Our second exhibition featuring the remarkable talent of Israeli and Jewish creatives took place in September 2024. The exhibition centered on the theme of resilience, showcasing works by artists that offered a profound look into the human spirit and the power to overcome adversity.
Stars in the Arts is donating 10% of art sales proceeds to the Israel Emergency Relief Fund through the American Zionist Movement.
“Together” Exhibit
May 16 - Midtown Manhattan
Our first event, "Together", took place on May 16th, 2024, in Manhattan, for one evening only. The exhibit featured Israeli and mostly local Jewish artists. If you would like to help us with our initiative and help us get the next event off the ground please go to our GoFundMe page.
A percentage of art sales on May 16 was donated to Jewish National Fund – USA for their Build Together Campaign, an initiative to rebuild communities in the Israel Envelope.

She is a graduate of the School of Visual Arts and is passionate about Women's Rights and Jewish Rights advocating through her artwork. Lilian Kebudi is a NYC-based painter born in Brazil. Since Oct 7th, she shifted her body of work to spread awareness about the hostages, and the shared sentiment of Jews around the world. Lilian recently graduated from Baruch College with a degree in Public Affairs and is interested in building communities and supporting others in the arts field.
Annette and Lilian connected through their shared desire to keep the Jewish artist community supported and safe.
