Coming Up - March 2026

March 5: At Purim we read the story of Esther, which revolves around the twin themes of heroes and masks. Join Isaac and Rabbi Shawna Brynjegard-Bialik—the artist-and-rabbi duo behind Paper Midrash—for a visual presentation on the Megillah and how comic books can be a lens to understand what it’s telling us, followed by a brief hands-on component to see how this “dynamic duo” teaches Jewish text study through art.

The Council of American Jewish Museums facilitates monthly Virtual Talking Circles for members to share information and discuss issues of importance and common interest via Zoom.

Come to think big with peers, stay to learn concrete tools you can use the next day, and help shape a shared future worthy of our stories.
