Pews, from Congregation Tifereth Israel, Revere
There are still a great many pews left to be claimed in Tifereth Israel, Revere. They are solid oak, 100 years old, with a Star of David on each end, and prayerbook holders on the backs. There are a number of different lengths that seat 4, 5, 6 or 8 people.
We would prefer that these go to one or more Jewish homes, but are open to the possibility of another destination, such as a church. Whatever remain will, sadly, be demolished in the spring when the building is torn down. So using them for reclaimed wood is a last option.

Maavar Reaches across the Ocean
Temple Shaarei Tefillah was founded in 1908 by residents of Norwood MA. For more than 100 years, the shul was the center of Jewish life in Norwood MA. But changing demographics caused them pick up stakes, moving first to a temple in Canton and then closing altogether.
By the time Maavar was founded, only two objects were left: a beautiful handmade portable ark and a sefer Torah. Through Maavar both of these found new homes far from their original location.
The Torah—one of four that Shaare Tefillah had—has just left on a journey to Poland, where it will be used by Beit Polska, an umbrella national community of 10 congregations that are, in turn, members of the World Union for Progressive Judaism. The Norwood leaders had previously sent three other Torahs to Spain, France and Hungary. It is also worth noting that Beit Polska recently received a Torah from another Massachusetts synagogue, Central Reform Temple in Boston.

The portable ark has found its way, through Maavar, to New York City, where it serves minyanim that meet at Congregation Ansche Chesed on the Upper West Side. They needed an ark that could fit into an elevator and travel back and forth in the building!
