Work
In 1965, Ina Golub began pursuing art full-time. Golub custom-designed fiber art, primarily Jewish ceremonial objects such as Torah mantles, wedding canopies, wall hangings, prayer shawls, as well as textiles with secular content, for synagogues, museums, and private collectors. She worked in tapestry, hand weaving, applique, quilting, stitchery, beadwork, and fabric painting. Her first commission was the renovation of the ark at Temple Sharey Tefilo-Israel in South Orange, New Jersey.[3] The Yeshiva University Museum mounted a 30-year retrospective on her work in 1996. Her work is in 40 synagogues throughout the United States,[4] and in the permanent collections of the Yeshiva University Museum and the Jewish Museum.
