Please join us for this engaging evening of memoir readings by students of Rob Freedman’s workshop, “Memoir Writing from a Jewish Perspective.” Each year this eight-week workshop helps participants to discover the stories they want to write and share. The emphasis is on those experiences that are uniquely Jewish in nature, reflective of our culture and identity – whether the writers are Jews by birth or by choice, or among the still perplexed.
The evening will include a brief Kabbalat Shabbat service, and will be followed by a potluck dessert oneg. To help us plan for the oneg, please RSVP here by June 6.
