The theme this year is: Unearthing Torah: Roots & Fruits
Join us for a night of learning in celebration of receiving Torah and its ongoing revelation in our lives. Our program will open with a keynote presentation from Dr. Kerry Wallach, discussing her recently published book, Traces of a Jewish Artist: The Lost Life & Work of Rahel Szalit. As the evening continues, we’ll light candles, nosh on dairy treats, and learn with Rabbi Mark Raphael, Rabbi Annie Lewis, Rabbi Yosef Goldman and Devin Egber. Come for one or all of the sessions!
