Monday Morning Modules Return!

Judaica In & At the Museum

THIS Monday, January 16 // 9:30 a.m. // Zoom

This talk, presented by Linda Sandhaus, begins with the question: Why do so
few American art museums include Jewish ritual art? To answer this question,
we need to start with the kunstkammers (cabinets of curiosity) of 17th
century Europe and trace the origins of art museums and Jewish museums
throughout Europe and the United States. Why was Jewish art treated
differently from the art of all other cultures? And what do we mean by
Jewish art anyway?

Alphabet/Alef Bet:

Hebrew and Semitic Roots in the English Language

January 23 & 30 // 9:30 a.m. // Zoom

English is an Indo-European language and Hebrew is a Northwest Semitic
language. Strictly speaking, they could not be more different. But as 'no
man is an island,' so too no language is an island. As archeologists in
recent years have found, in antiquity there was much more commerce and trade
between the Middle East and other lands than was once imagined. And as goods
migrate, often enough the words describing them migrate as well. Presented
by Len Hausman, you are invited to discover English words whose origins, via
the Romance languages, may well lie the languages of the Levant - including
Hebrew!

Sisterhood Knit & Knosh

(and needlework, too!)

Tuesday, January 17 // 7:00 p.m. // On Zoom

Join Sisterhood as we spend some relaxing time together on zoom, giving
those needlework projects the special attention they deserve.

Click  <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85135174281> HERE to join! 

(Meeting ID: 851 3517 4281// PW: CBI)

Sisterhood Game Night

Wednesday, January 18 // 7:00 p.m. // Youth Lounge

Join us, and bring your favorite board game, your mah jongg set, a deck of
cards, or just yourself. No food or drink will be served, but plenty of fun
will be had! Stay masked if you wish. Arrangements can be made to attend
CBI's Evening Minyan.

Please RSVP to Susan Stern at  <mailto:hazelstorm1016 at aol.com>

Sisterhood

Rosh Chodesh Program

Tuesday, January 24 // 6:30 p.m. // In-person at CBI and Zoom

Bookends with Sisterhood

Read, learn, and discuss with us!

Wednesday, January 25 // 7:00 p.m. // Zoom

Bookish People by Susan Coll is an entertaining novel set over one week in a
Washington DC bookstore. Narrated by two very different women and filled
with literary and political references, it is a rom com filled with a
diverse multigenerational cast of people who sell books, write books, love
books and/or people who love the people who sell, write and/or love books.

Discussion will be facilitated by Sara Sherman.

The Masks Are Off

But Are Our Children Feeling Comfortable

Sunday, January 29 // 9:30 a.m. // CBI

A discussion and Q&A of post-pandemic anxiety and socialization in our
children led by CBI congregant Michelle Farber Daniel. This is geared toward
anyone connected with pre-school to college-aged children.

Michelle Farber Daniel, Psy.D., is a clinical psychologist and long-time CBI
member. She graduated from the Graduate School of Applied and Professional
Psychology (GSAPP) at Rutgers University and completed her internship at
University Hospital, Newark, in the Child and Adolescent Outpatient
Department. She maintains a private practice in Millburn, NJ, where she
specializes in working with children, adolescents, and their families. She
is also a clinical supervisor to graduate students at GSAPP.  Michelle is
the proud parent of three children, twin girls (22) and a son (19).

CBI Chanting Circle

The Art of the Nigun

Sunday, January 29 // 5:00 p.m. // CBI

This special edition of the chanting circle is going wordless!  What is a
nigun if not a chant without words?  Like chant, the nigun is powerful
centuries-old way of accessing a spiritual sensibility not otherwise readily
available to us.  While our niguns will be contemporary, what they bring out
is timeless!
