SUMMARY:Challah and Conversation: Why Does Kindness Matter?
DESCRIPTION:More than the quip “Everything I needed to learn I learned in kindergarten”\, we will unpack why and how kindness is so essential to ways we interact with each other and treat ourselves.  Living in a world of geopolitical strife\, polarizing domestic political rhetoric\, and general meanness\, Jewish wisdom will help us recalibrate our kindness compasses.

SUMMARY:Celebrate Juneteenth: African Storytelling with Subomi Macaulay
DESCRIPTION:Free \nGather on Juneteenth with Subomi Macaulay\, The African Storyteller\, a performer\, author\, and educator who brings the rich traditions of African oral storytelling to audiences of all ages. This interactive event follows the traditional African way of storytelling; beginning with affirmations\, a libation to honor the ancestors\, and sharing a story that teaches a life lesson. Throughout the performance\, the audience is invited to participate\, just as they would in a traditional village setting. \nSubomi Macaulay’s work is rooted in the ancestral practices she learned from her maternal grandmother in West Africa\, where storytelling was not just entertainment but a way of teaching values\, preserving history\, and strengthening community. As a performer\, Subomi blends ritual\, rhythm\, movement\, and audience participation to create immersive experiences that feel both ancient and alive. Her programs are celebrated for their ability to engage both children and adults\, creating shared moments of learning and connection.
