Meet our new mural, Edgar the Hoopoe. The hoopoe, the colorful migratory bird featured in the new Lehrhaus mural by local artist Chloe Rubinstein, has deep roots in Jewish and global storytelling. Known in Jewish tradition as the guardian of the Shamir—the mythical creature said to carve the stones of the Temple without tools of war—and celebrated in Farid ud-Din Attar’s Sufi classic The Conference of the Birds as the flock’s spiritual guide, the hoopoe embodies migration, wisdom, and transformation. Its presence at Lehrhaus reflects the spirit of a community always in motion, connecting ancient ideas with new expressions of art, culture, and conversation.

Lehrhaus named one of the best new restaurants in America.
