Book Club
The Book Club will return spring 2026, with our selections announced later this fall.
With a deep dive into poetry collections; talks by authors, scholars, and translators; and opportunities for discussion, we invite you to join us in savoring and celebrating an expansive range of Jewish poetry.
Meetings are held Sundays, 12-1:30 pm EST.
