The exhibition, Jars in Heaven, was presented in two solo exhibitions across the United States in 2025.

"It was an honor to host the solo exhibition, entitled “Jars in Heaven” by Ronit Joy Holtz as part of our International Women’s Week celebration. Holtz’s work was well received by our students, faculty, and community as it bridges contemporary art, rich cultural history, and faith. Our students were encouraged to reflect on the role art has in storytelling, healing, and memory preservation during Holtz’s artist talk and classroom visits. Drawing from personal and historical narratives, Holtz was able to foster conversations about the power of art for dealing with grief and overcoming adversity aligning with Lee University’s commitment to cultivate intellectual curiosity, artistic exploration and cultural engagement.

Ronit Joy Holtz shares not only her art, but her moving testimony of how things in life are reflected in the pieces displayed. Her Artist Talk expressed such a raw vulnerability, and as you view the art exhibit, you can tangibly feel the emotional ties. Her work is so moving, and I believe it also demonstrates the love of God throughout the pieces. Emmanuel University is proud to host this unique and talented artist, and to use it to connect to our students, the community, and region.
