Experience "The Moment Music Stood Still" | Opens on December 18

Event photo

The Greater Miami Jewish Federation is proud to welcome The Nova Music Festival Exhibition to Miami. The in-depth remembrance of the brutal massacre at The Nova Music Festival in Re’im, Israel, on October 7, sets out to recreate a festival dedicated to peace and love that was savagely cut short by Hamas’ barbaric attack.

As the host community, Federation deeply encourages all South Floridians to visit the groundbreaking installation. Viewers are empowered to responsibly explore and bear witness to the tragedy of October 7 while joining together in the hopeful plea that “We will dance again.”

A portion of ticket proceeds benefit the Tribe of Nova Foundation, formed in the aftermath of the attack to support the physical, spiritual and mental healing journey of the survivors and the bereaved families. Due to the sensitive and graphic nature of some of the content, the exhibit is recommended for ages 16-plus.
