Israel Themed Singing & Dancing – Gourmet Comfort food -- Cocktails

Although our hearts are heavy as we enter the festive season of Chanukah, we
will come together – as we should – to be with each other, eat with each
other and dance with each other as a community. We will honor and celebrate
individuals connected to CBI that have served or are serving in the Israeli
military.

The fee is $50 per person through Thursday, December 10th, and $60 per
person through December 14th. No registrations will be accepted after 12/14.
For more information, please contact David Sotnick at

Please participate in this year’s “Israel Themed” Video Journal!

<mailto:mikeslifer at verizon.net> mikeslifer at verizon.net or
<mailto:dsotnick14 at gmail.com> dsotnick14 at gmail.com) up to 4 photos taken in
Israel that represent meaningful times for you and your family and/or
friends, whether Israeli or not, have spent in Israel.   For $40, we will
put together a meaningful video journal (with the pictures and other
features) that will be displayed in the CBI Lobby for the second half of
December and at the Chanukah Dinner on a large screen (or two).  We will
also send you a link to the video.

Bookends With Sisterhood Returns!

Thursday, January 4th // 7:00 pm // Zoom

We will be discussing Kantika by Elizabeth Graver.

Elizabeth Graver began writing her fifth novel,
<https://www.amazon.com/Kantika-Novel-Elizabeth-Graver/dp/1250869846>
Kantika, in 2014, but the Turkish Sephardic dressmaker at the heart of the
multi-generational, continent-spanning saga has been with her for a
lifetime. That’s because she was inspired by Graver’s maternal grandmother,
Rebecca (née Cohen) Baruch Levy.

The discussion will be moderated by Sara Sherman.
