NEW JERSEY
Born in 1945 in Baghdad, raised in Israel and a New York resident since 1975, Zigi Ben-Haim perhaps has his geographical history to thank for his talent at piecing together disparate elements and arriving at visually integrated three-dimensional sculptures. Opening May 18, “Journey With Me” brings some 13 sculptures — made mainly from stainless steel, metal mesh and copper tubing — and four paintings to Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton.
Grounds for Sculpture, 18 Fairgrounds Road, Hamilton; May 18-July 13; Tue.-Sun. 10 a.m.-9 p.m.; prices vary by day $3-$10. (609-586-0616)

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
