(Boston Herald) – Can one day off change your life?
Alex Bregman knows one can.
The Jewish Red Sox star spent the team’s April 28 off-day in Toronto at the Nova Exhibition, a traveling installation designed to “empower visitors to responsibly explore & bear witness” to the massacre perpetrated by Hamas in southern Israel and at the Nova Music Festival on Oct. 7, 2023.
Blue Jays broadcaster Dan Shulman invited Bregman when the American League East rivals opened their season series at Fenway Park in early April.
“I had no idea really what to expect,” Bregman told the Herald. “The experience was super intense and honestly, life-changing.”
Through photos, belongings, and objects from the festival, the Nova Exhibition takes visitors through an event dedicated to peace and love, and destroyed by violence, hatred, and evil.
