JanJanuary 24 , 20222022 Virtual Film Festival - "The Return of the Violin"
Monday, Jan 24th 7:00p to 8:15p
“The Return of the Violin” is a story about survival, not only of a people, but of a remarkable violin. The 1713 Stradivarius was given to a young Polish Jewish prodigy, Bronislaw Huberman, who later became the founder of what is now the Israeli Philharmonic. It was stolen twice during Huberman’s ownership and later put up for sale as a museum piece, before being purchased by one of the world’s most celebrated violinists, Joshua Bell. Our film festival discussion of "The Return of the Violin" will take place with Heller Kreshtool. Heller is the daughter of survivors, originally from the town featured in the movie. FREE -

JanJanuary 26 , 2022Jews at the Forefront of Change
Wednesday, Jan 26th 12:00p to 1:00p
Jews have historically played a significant role in working for change within the societies in which they live. From its beginnings, Judaism brought a new and revolutionary message to the world about the relationship between God, the world and humanity, and especially about the responsibility upon the Jews as God’s Chosen. In this mini-course, we will explore the unique role that Jews have had in shaping the world according to both a vision of what the world should look like and a mission to make that happen, whether through ideology, religious understandings, charismatic leadership, influential writings, protests, movements, or at times even violence. Is this merely a coincidence? A reaction to our own history of persecution ? Or is it part of the nature of Jewish consciousness? -
