Mei Shifra Women's Mikvah
Our stunning freestanding mikvah facility features a welcoming Lounge Area, complete with leather sectional seating, a fireplace, and library shelving. A large vestibule leads to two unique, spacious Dressing Rooms, a half bathroom, and - through copper paneled doors - the Immersion Room. One wall of the vestibule exhibits an art project enhanced and curated by Israeli-based artist Andi Arnovitz, containing images created by the women of our community.
The Immersion Room highlight is a curved stone wall with a glass tile mosaic of a river flowing out of Gan Eden by local artist Miriam Karp. Dressing Rooms have gracious showers with hand-held and rain shower options, large jacuzzi tubs, and vessel sinks resting on granite counters.
Each Dressing Room has its own entry door into the Immersion Room. There is a private back hallway and exit, so users will maintain privacy after immersing. Before leaving the building they have the opportunity to wash at a copper pedestal sink, reminiscent of the copper mirrors women donated to Bezalel for construction of the Mishkan.
