The Jewish anti-hunger group Mazon is bringing its touring exhibit to New York City this week, to educate visitors about the prevalence of hunger in the U.S.
Built into a 53-foot-long trailer, the interactive exhibit features the stories of Americans struggling with hunger.
“It’s not about statistics — we wanted people to have an experience,” the lead content creator for the exhibit, Marni Gittleman, told the New Jersey Jewish News.
The exhibit, called “This is Hunger,” will be in Manhattan’s Central Park this weekend and Brooklyn’s Prospect Park the following weekend.

This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions.

The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
