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. See home page for most current information.

CAJM’s Virtual Talking Circles return this November 2025 with a refreshed format and a unifying theme, Voices for a Shared Future. We’ll gather on Thursdays, offering two sessions each month—a big-idea conversation followed by an applied workshop that turns dialogue into practice.

During the year-long cycle, we’ll explore three interwoven tracks—Environment & Climate, Voices of Democracy, and Cultural Pluralism—to spark curiosity, build skills, and strengthen our field.

Why join? Because our community holds many voices—and that’s our strength. This new approach brings conversation starters and field experts together to invite curiosity, instill hope, practice resilience, lift up collective wisdom, and celebrate innovation. 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.

NEXT TALKING CIRCLE DATES: We open with Environment & Climate on Thursday, Nov 6, 12–1 PM ET / 9–10 AM PT, followed by the applied workshop on Thursday, Nov 20, 12–1 PM ET / 9–10 AM PT.
