Event Details

Israel a Short History by Professional photographer Michael Fairchild is a narrated audio-visual documentary created after an extensive Holy Lands tour in 2019. Fulfilling a life-long ambition to document modern and ancient Israel, Fairchild explored the mystical locations surrounding the Sea of Galilee, the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, the Masada desert fortress overlooking the Dead Sea, and the wrecked tanks at the “Valley of Tears” in the Golan Heights. The key locations at the core of Israel’s history are fascinating. Jerusalem, the same city that conjures hymns and sermons, has been captured and recaptured 44 times, besieged 23 times, and destroyed twice; a brutal legacy for a place of such deep religious significance. The diversity of people from all over the world in Israel also gave Fairchild ample subject matter for reflection and photography. Please register.
