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.

"Why I became the Forward’s Editor-in-Chief"
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
