Sessions also on Nov 19 & Dec 17
Time: 2:15-3:15 pm
Shalom Sensations for Babies introduces you and your baby to a world of rich and varied sensory experiences in a creative and enjoyable environment to encourage learning and development.
Shalom Sensations gives your child a rich sensory experience and for you to meet other Jewish parents. Through the many activities, your baby will explore through their senses (e.g. visual, auditory and tactile) and discover inner peace (Shalom). By enhancing physical contact (massage, touching, cuddling, rocking and climbing) your baby will develop confidence and a build a positive parent-child connection. Early experiences with a variety of sensory activities promote the development of language, social emotional and physical skills.

This spring, Havurah member Alicia Jo Rabins will guide us through the complicated lives of ten Biblical women. Alicia’s Women in Torah workshop will use creativity and conversation to explore characters from Eve to Yiftach’s daughter. This is the first full-length pilot course of Alicia’s Girls in Trouble curriculum, created around her critically acclaimed Girls in Trouble song cycle (indie-folk songs about women in Torah).
A poet, violinist, and Torah scholar, Alicia created the one-woman show A Kaddish for Bernie Madoff, which she performed recently at Disjecta. Her new collection of poems, Divinity School, won the 2015 American Poetry Review/Honickman First Book Prize.
With Alicia’s expertise, we will examine these famous and not-so-famous women in ways that might inspire us in moments of struggle and in the context of our own lives. Each of the ten sessions will explore one woman and is relatively independent of the others within the overarching theme of the course.
–Ruth Feldman
This course is free for Havurah members, $15/class for non-members.
