Concepts of Art Lenox Judaica

Two decades ago in the village of Lenox, Massachusetts, Lynda Strauch, with her two young children, opened Concepts of Art. It was for her a business venture that combined two of her passions, art and Judaism. From a modest start, Concepts of Art/Lenox Judaica has grown to include several thousand Jewish ceremonial items, fine art, and jewelry, showcasing artists and products from Massachusetts to Jerusalem. Each item is personally chosen: from whimsical to elegant, from modestly priced to museum quality.

Seven Arts

Reviewed By RhodeIslandActor - Providence, United States

“Great music store” 5 of 5 bubbles When staying at The Red Lion Inn, I found this terrific music store practically next door. The person manning the store was knowledgeable about various artists, really helpful in finding a particular song I was looking for and generally liked what he was doing for a living. That is getting rare in the shopping experience. He was a former radio disc jockey, so he knew a lot about his subject. This little store has a great selection of vinyl and c.d.'s and the vinyl records I purchased are in perfect condition. In fact, the salesperson (I hesitate to call him that; he was more like a guide) was cleaning records as we talked. If you, as I do, enjoy music and are looking to add to your collection, this is actually a destination rather than a place to drop in while in town. I may make a detour to this store if I am anywhere near Stockbridge. https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g41850-r488152731-Stockbridge_Massachusetts.html#
