Classes for the Curious in our Community

Classes for the curious are exactly that—classes exploring topics that you are curious about. They provide an opportunity to expand your horizons, dive deep into topics you wonder about, learn practical and fun skills all while socializing and interacting with fellow participants. Each series will run for three consecutive weeks and provide an opportunity to choose two classes and socialize over coffee and dessert in between. Our pilot series will commence in January with classes on Israel, Judaism, Healthy Habits and Israeli Dancing. Future months will bring many other exciting topics such as the history of the Jews in the West, Jewish Cooking, combatting antisemitism and much more. If there is a topic you are interested in or an idea you have, please contact our program chairs, Herzl and Hazel Melmed. hmelmed@comcast.net $36 for all three weeks of classes.
