Let There Be Light Next to the Star of David, the menorah is perhaps the most recognizable symbol of Judaism. The nine-branched candelabrum used in the celebration of Hanukkah has been mass-produced over the centuries (including an electric dime-store version with orange Christmas bulbs that screw into the branches). In "Light Interpretations: A Hanukkah Menorah Invitational," 127 unique creations by Jewish and non-Jewish artists in a variety of media have been gathered. The menorahs are on display through Dec. 25 at the Jewish Museum, 121 Steuart, S.F. Tickets are $1.50-3; call 543-8880.
