Happening This Weekend

We are excited to welcome you and your children to come explore with us at our Jewish Discovery Lab. Our premiere youth education experience for students K-7, allows them to explore Judaism, their community, and their own identity through project-based learning. Students learn Torah through movement, Jewish law through Art, history through technology, and build lasting relationships along the way. Our students love coming to Lab, and we hope that you will join in on the fun this coming year.

Prospective students will be able to participate in a typical day at our Jewish Discovery Lab. Parents will observe the learning, and have special time to meet with Rabbi Tyler Dratch, Director of Youth and Family Education and Rabbi Daniel Burg, Beth Am’s senior Rabbi. They will share more about the program, and answer your questions about our upcoming year.

Around Beth Am

Have you ever been involved in planning a funeral? If so, you know much more goes into a funeral than most people realize. Join us as we discuss the decisions that need to be made and the importance of having this conversation ahead of time.

Rabbi Daniel Cotzin Burg will present an overview of funeral traditions and the reasons behind them, as well as modern takes on funeral choices. Then, Eliza Feller, Director of Advance Planning at Sol Levinson & Bros., will touch on the many ways you can make funeral planning significantly easier for your family.

Registration is required. Please register here by Tuesday, May 17
