Monthly Class on Jewish Values |
First Friday of each month
9:45 - 11:15 a.m.
Rodef Shalom Library
Jewish Values presented by Joyce Raynor
Last month we discussed the messiah and the messianic age through traditional Jewish sources
and the liberal view in the movie, Field of Dreams. This month we'll continue that discussion and
explore other Jewish themes embedded in Field of Dreams.
Passover Match Up!
This year the Pesach seders are Saturday, April 12 and Sunday April 13
Many within our Hazak group do not have family in town, or are fairly new to our community.
If you are hosting a Sedar and have room for one or two more at your table, please use the sign up below.
Feel free to add anything in the comment about location or
food preparation that might help me match guests to your table.
If you are seeking a Seder for the first or second night, please use the sign up as a guest,
and again the more information our share in the comment box helps me make a match.
I'm not guaranteeing that I will be able to accomodate everyone's wish,
but I will try hard to help everyone experience a joyful Pesach.
Cinema Chat
Thurs, May 22 @ 4:00 p.m.
Sing Sing
Virginia Village Library
Please join us for a discussion of the movie.
The movie is based on the true story of a man imprisoned at Sing Sing for a crime he didn't commit.
When joined by a wary outsider, he finds purpose staging an original comedy with
a theater group of other incarcerated men.
It is currently available for rent on several platforms and might be streaming for free in upcoming weeks.

Central City Opera
Sunday, August 3, 2025. 2:00 pm.
Central City Opera House, Central City
Rossini’s rollicking masterpiece is probably the world’s most popular comic opera. Here is what the Metropolitan Opera says about it: “Its buoyant good humor and elegant melodies have delighted the diverse tastes of every generation for two centuries, and several of the opera’s most recognizable tunes have entered the world’s musical unconscious, most notably the introductory patter song of the swaggering Figaro, the titular barber of Seville.”
Even better: Neil Adelman will speak about the opera – its music, story, and performance history with video excerpts. The time and location to be determined. Neil has lectured on this opera for Denver University’s OLLI program and in a similar Naples, Florida program.
Please let us know as soon as possible if you are interested in attending so we will know if there is sufficient interest to reserve 10 tickets and can adjust the number of tickets upwards if there is greater interest. We will need to reserve an appropriate block of tickets well before the end of March.
