SUMMARY:Yoga Minyan
DESCRIPTION:With Michelle Silberman Hubbard\, Yoga Instructor  \nSundays mornings | 9 – 10 am  \nOur rabbis taught us that the soul is joined intimately to the body.  The two move together and each can be used in the service of God.

Expect an uplifting morning service and a great sweat. No previous Yoga or davening experience necessary. Dress for comfort. Bring a yoga mat or towel\, a small towel\, and water. Time to get up and stretch your body! Grab your mat or towel and join in via Zoom. New participants always welcome!  \nZoom link will be provided upon registration. \nRegister Here→ \nSponsored by Sisterhood Temple Emanuel \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special Shabbat Service with guest speaker Robert Leikind\, Regional Director of AJC New England. \nSermon Topic: Clarity\, Courage\, and Commitment: Confronting Antisemitism Now \nThe surge of antisemitism has left many of us unsettled\, confused\, and struggling to understand what type of Jewish future is possible in the Diaspora.

A child of parents who survived Hitler’s Europe\, he grew up with a deeply rooted regard for the opportunity that American democracy affords Jews and other vulnerable minorities. Throughout his career\, Rob has been a passionate defender of civil rights\, an ardent advocate in the fight against antisemitism and other forms of bigotry\, and a vocal proponent of a just and secure future for Israel and its neighbors. \nRob began his career working with Holocaust survivors in Brooklyn\, New York. A lawyer by training\, he served as an Assistant District Attorney before going on to be Director of the ADL’s Connecticut and Boston offices and Senior Vice President of Hebrew College. \nRob has been a contributor to various media on topics ranging from Israel and anti-Semitism to intergroup relations and civil rights. He received his bachelor’s degree from Vassar College\, an M.S. from Columbia University and his J.D. from the Boston College Law School.

SUMMARY:Finding Esther: A Creative Journey Through Illuminations
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by Returning The Sparks\nIn this hands-on visual art class\, we will consider the imagery surrounding Purim through a personal lens. Starting with images of the large collection of Illuminated Esther’s Scrolls from the fabulous online archive of the Center of Jewish Art we will conduct visual journeys into the imagery. We will use simple but effective techniques of adding\, subtracting\, layering\, and obscuring imagery to investigate the historical art from a variety of perspectives while tracing a path to original creations. No prior art experience necessary\, all materials provided. The teacher will provide individual creative and technical support for each participant to pursue their own unique vision. \nFebruary 1 @ 10:00am – Adelson Community Hall\nFebruary 8 @ 10:00am – Benjamin Vestry \nRegister→
