“Intro to Judaism” is not the same thing as “Judaism for Dummies.” This thing we call Judaism is a wonderful and complicated culture bringing together things we think of as religion, ancestry, nationality, culture, language, cuisine and more. This year long class will be proceeding from the assumption that neither this culture nor those of us who have come together this year to study it are simple or simple-minded.
3rd trimester: Introduction to Jewish History
Sundays, March 3-April 28, 9:30 AM - 11:00 AM
If you have any questions about registration, please be in touch with Faith Adams; if you have any questions about the content of the class, please be in touch with Rabbi Brent Spodek.
Adult Learning classes are FREE for BHA Members, please log in to your BHA account. Non-Member pricing is $90.00 per trimester, or $45.00 for the Open Gates option.*
*On principle, BHA does not turn people away for financial reasons; at the same time, we can only continue to operate because of the funds received from our members and supporters. To try and balance these needs, we have instituted an Open Gates fee option - on the honor system, if you are facing financial difficulties, please select the Open Gates Fee Option for reduced fees.
Sorry, Registration has ended.
