JLive is our series of virtual cultural experiences. Meet some of the best Boston area talent, telling their Jewish story through art.

Expedition Maker contestant, Eugene Zeleny, joins us for JLive to talk about his artistic journey from teaching Judaica workshops as a Moishe House resident to balancing his love of mechanical engineering, woodworking, and making.

Eugene started his woodworking hobby over nine years ago, and it’s been one of his the best life decisions thus far. He enjoys building unique, one-of-a-kind projects for friends, family, and strangers alike. He has built things ranging from wedding altars and flying gliders to wooden moustaches and bowties. Eugene’s range is unbound and my curiosity untethered.
