Open Circle Jewish Learning: Texts and Traditions

Texts and Traditions Circles

Explore Jewish rituals, practices and values, such as those surrounding Shabbat, death and grief, the start of a new month, and ritual immersion. Or delve into vibrant Jewish texts, including the Torah, Talmud, and contemporary Jewish thought.

Open Circle Jewish Learning, a Hebrew College program sponsored by Combined Jewish Philanthropies (CJP), also offers classes focused on Arts and Culture, Mindfulness and Mysticism, Politics and History, and Social Action, or you can create your own Open Circle salon on any Jewish text or theme.
