At Congregation Brith Sholom, we have a robust Adult Education program for beginners to advanced learners and every level in between. We offer ongoing and limited-series classes, including Visiting Scholars and Brunch & Learns on a variety of fascinating topics. From kippah making and challah baking to learner’s minyan and Jewish ethics, most classes are available to every member without prerequisites.
