Upcoming Events

Join us for Spark! an evening with local storytellers who share personal stories inspired by Jewish or Jewish-related music. Whether it’s a prayer melody, a Broadway hit, a summer camp tune or even a Christmas song by Irving Berlin, music can spark a story.

We invite families, synagogues, schools, and senior centers to incorporate the magic and creativity of storytelling into their Shabbat celebration. We’ve created toolkits with suggestions and story prompts to make the experience easy and joyful for all. 

There is always possibility and joy. Rejoice! Regardless is a monumental weave of personal stories throughout a Kurdish Jewish Fairytale collected in the 1940s in Jerusalem called What a Beautiful Road. Laura tells stories of her childhood in Brooklyn, working in a displaced persons camp in Haiti, with Gypsy women in Romania, and hearing the violin music of a survivor who lived in her attic in Boro Park.

An afternoon of building community through storytelling, workshops, and tales from the pulpit.
