    Wednesday, Jan 29th 6:00p to 7:00p
    A dazzling Sephardic multigenerational saga that moves from Istanbul to Barcelona, Havana, and New York, exploring displacement, endurance, and family as home. A kaleidoscopic portrait of one family’s displacement across four countries, Kantika-“song” in Ladino-follows the joys and losses of Rebecca Cohen, feisty daughter of the Sephardic elite of early 20th-century Istanbul.Exploring identity, place and exile, Kantika also reveals how the female body-in work, art and love-serves as a site of both suffering and joy. A haunting, inspiring meditation on the tenacity of women, this lush, lyrical novel from Elizabeth Graver celebrates the insistence on seizing beauty and grabbing hold of one’s one and only life.

    Thursday, Jan 30th 11:00a to 12:00p
    This six session course delves into the critical events of 1947 and 1967—building upon the 1917 Balfour Declaration—as key moments when Zionism inspired new perspectives on Jewish identity for future generations. It invites Jews to participate in an open and diverse discussion about Jewish identity, community, ethics, and theology, especially as they relate to nationhood, land, sovereignty, Jerusalem, occupation, and moral boundaries.
