Judaism 101: Introduction to Jewish Practice and Hebrew Texts
Week 6 | Tu, W, Th | Smith Library Classroom | Ages 14+
This is a great introductory/refresher course for those feeling rusty about their Judaism, as well as those who simply want to know more about the Jewish faith, history, customs, and the many ways to be/"do" Jewish. Focusing on spirituality, Jewish sacred texts, and the breadth of Jewish peoplehood, the instructor teaches as much as she can in three stimulating and informative sessions.
