The carved wooden doors, created in 1951 by a renowned sculptor, the late Milton Horn, had their genesis at a synagogue in Chicagos South Shore neighborhood.
Rabbi Samuel Gordon at Sukkat Shalom said his North Shore synagogue received the doors as a gift from members of the Kol Ami congregation, the second stop on the doors journey after the closing of their historic Water Tower Place downtown location.
These Holy Ark doors help maintain the history of the South Shore, Kol Ami and other reform congregations, Gordon said. We are able to keep these memories alive as the demographics changed and as congregations closed.
Holy Ark doors at synagogues pay homage to the original Ark of the Covenant, which according to the Bible held the stone tablets inscribed with the Ten Commandments, Gordon said. Today, arks hold a synagogues Torah.
When Horns creations first debuted at the South Shore synagogue in 1951, the cherubim-themed design was considered rather controversial, Gordon said, as some found the human likeness in violation of the Second Commandments warning against graven images.
The doors, though, became part of the indelible memories of those who grew up in the community.
I can just see my dad, who passed away two years ago at 93, standing in front of those doors at my brothers bar mitzvah, said Judy Buckman, executive director of Sukkat Shalom, whose family belonged to the South Shore congregation on Jeffery Boulevard where the Holy Ark doors were installed in the early 1950s.
When I look at the doors, I see all the memories of my youth, Buckman said.
More than six decades later, the traveling doors are in many ways reflective of their new home, Gordon said, both aesthetically and spiritually.
The Sukkat Shalom congregation, established 18 years ago, did not have a permanent location of its own until 2012, Gordon said, when the synagogue was created by renovating a midcentury building and former Christian Science Church.

Jewish Heritage Month
Thursday, April 10, 2014
On February 23, 2012, the Ontario Legislature passed Bill 17, making the month of May Jewish Heritage Month in the Province. The legislation received strong cross-party support, being introduced by Liberal MPP Mike Colle as a private members bill with co-sponsorship from Peter Shurman of the Progressive Conservative Party and Cheri DiNovo of the NDP.
This Bill recognizes and honours the significant contributions of Jewish Canadians to the social, economic, political and cultural fabric across Ontario for more than two centuries. The Jewish community has worked side-by-side with Ontarians from all backgrounds to help build this province, and their continued involvement has supported and enhanced the diverse multicultural mosaic that makes Ontario a place envied around the world. Jewish Heritage Month is an opportunity to remember, celebrate and educate future generations about the inspirational role that Jewish Canadians have played, and continue to play, in communities across Ontario.
May was chosen because it is an important month for the Jewish Canadian community. Holocaust Remembrance Day and Israeli Independence Day frequently occur in May depending on the lunar calendar, and the Toronto Jewish Film Festival and Jewish Music Week are annual May events.
Canada has the fourth largest Jewish community in the world, exceeded only by Israel, the United States, and France. More than half of this countrys 360,000 Jewish Canadians live in Ontario. Local 79 stands in solidarity with Jewish workers and proudly celebrates Jewish Heritage Month.
Renowned Canadians of Jewish Heritage include:
Rosalie Abella, Supreme Court Justice Dave Barrett, former Premier of British Columbia Leonard Cohen, musician and poet David Croll, first Jewish senator Drake, hip hop artist and actor Lew Hayman, Toronto Argonauts & Montreal Alouettes coach Naomi Klein, Activist Stephen Lewis, Former Leader of the Ontario NDP, United Nations special envoy for HIV/AIDS in Africa. Anne Michaels, poet and novelist Peter C. Newman, journalist Nathan Phillips, Former Mayor of Toronto Louis Rasminsky, Order of Canada, 3rd Governor Bank of Canada Mordecai Richler, author, screenwriter and essayist William Shatner, actor and director Miriam Waddington, poet
