with Rabbi Amy
In honor of the spirit of Lilith, one of Judaism’s lesser known – but by no means lesser than – female figures, the Lilith Readers Book Club is a space for all who are interested in reading feel-good books that explore the relationships, love stories, and adventures that make up the Jewish experience. By reading novels written by Jewish women and about them, we celebrate the tradition of strong women’s voices in literature, all while enjoying a good nosh, some good wine, and the good company of friends. Join us!
Thursday, August 28 | 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm | Congregation Temple Israel | free for TI members; $18 for non-members (registration is required to attend!)
Light refreshments provided. Feel free to BYO wine or other treats to share.
