'A hidden gem': A rare stained glass collection exists right in the suburbs NorthbrookCommunitySynagogue
Northbrook Community Synagogue, at 2548 Jasper Court immediately northeast of the intersection of Willow and Landwehr roads, houses the collection. The stained glass was rescued from synagogues across the country after the buildings went"out of Jewish hands," a news release said.
Each of the displays includes plaques describing the windows, the synagogues or congregations they graced, and their respective journeys to the Northbrook Community Synagogue. The story of how 36 windows from the former Kehielat Jerushan Synagogue in Albany Park arrived at the Northbrook synagogue illustrates Orbach's commitment and emotional attachment to the project.
As an adult he often drove past the synagogue. Over time he documented its transformation into a Korean church, then into a dilapidated, grafitti-scrawled building within a"rough" neighborhood. Orbach orchestrated a trade by which he would have the prestigious Botti Studio of Architectural Arts create windows more fitting for a church in exchange for the former Kehielat Jerushan Synagogue windows.
"The Jewish Experience" includes transom windows from Beth Itzhok Congregation in Chicago; a set of 16, 8-foot-tall windows from Congregation B'nai Israel of Saginaw, Michigan; and 13 entrance windows from Mikro Kodesh Anshe Tiktin Synagogue of Budlong Woods in Chicago.
