SUMMARY:Violins of Hope: Strings of the Holocaust Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Narrated by Academy Award-winning actor Adrien Brody\, Violins of Hope – Strings of the Holocaust follows Israeli master violinmaker Amnon Weinstein as he restores violins carried by starving Jewish refugees on death marches\, played under coercion in concentration camps\, and held close in ghettos and work camps—each instrument bearing witness to suffering\, courage\, and resilience. The film interweaves these histories with Weinstein’s mission to collect\, repair\, and return the violins to the world’s stages through performances by renowned musicians and orchestras\, an act of love and defiance against those who tried to silence both the music and a people. \nPost-film conversation featuring Janet Horvath. Ms. Horvath was the associate principal cello of the Minnesota Orchestra from 1980-2012. Her new book\, The Cello Still Sings – A Generational Story of the Holocaust and of the Transformative Power of Music\, will be available for purchase and signing. \nView Trailer Here

SUMMARY:Fridays at Knollwood: Thomas B. Walker's Vision of St. Louis Park
DESCRIPTION:As part of our Fridays at Knollwood event series\, join us for a fascinating look at the early history of St. Louis Park as the city celebrates 140 years since its incorporation as a village in 1886.\n\nThis presentation by the St. Louis Park Historical Society will explore the ambitious vision of Thomas B. Walker\, best known as the founder of the Walker Art Center\, who set out in the 1890s to transform St. Louis Park into an industrial suburb of Minneapolis. Though his plans were interrupted by the national economic Panic of 1893\, traces of his vision remained for decades — and a few can still be seen today.\n\nGuests are invited to enjoy an afternoon of lifelong learning\, local history and community connection at Knollwood Place Apartments.\n\nThis free event is open to the community. All are welcome.\n\n Friday\, June 12 | 2:30 p.m.\n Knollwood Place Apartments\, 3630 Phillips Parkway\, St. Louis Park\n\nRSVP by emailing Alex at acarlon@sholom.com or register here: https://form.jotform.com/261385926375165

SUMMARY:The Book of Legends / Sefer Ha-Aggadah
DESCRIPTION:Meets online Fridays\, 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM \n\n2026 Session Dates\nFriday\, Feb 13 | Friday\, Feb 20 | Friday\, Feb 27 | Friday\, March 6 | No class March 13 | Friday\, March 20 | Friday\, March 27 | No Class April 3\, Passover | Friday\, April 10 | Friday\, April 17 | Friday\, April 24 | Friday\, May 1 | Friday\, May 8 | Friday\, May 17 | No Class May 22\, Shavuot | Friday\, May 29 | Friday\, June 5 | Friday\, June 12 | Friday\, June 19 | Friday\, June 26 \n\nCourse Description\nWho doesn’t love a good story? And especially a story that has a big idea connected to other big ideas? Join us as we take our time to read these texts slowly\, working to consider why they were written and what messages we might learn (or push back on) from them. \nSefer HaAggadah is a massive collection of aggadot/tales\, arranged thematically\, and gleaned in the early 20th century by Bialik and Ravnitzky from classic Jewish sources (up to about 1000 CE). \nClasses are designed for drop-in participation; no prior knowledge is necessary or expected. \n\nInstructor Bio\nSara Lynn Newberger remembers receiving her first chumash (volume of Torah) in 3rd grade – and thus was born a life-long love of studying Torah. Born in Chicago\, she landed in St. Paul in 1989 where she came to work at the Talmud Torah of St. Paul Day School because the mission and vision resonated with her soul. After serving in many roles at TTSP\, she served as the Director of Hineni from its inception in 2014 to 2022. She believes passionately in the importance of Jewish learning and the impact it can have on people’s lives. She loves exploring Jewish texts\, customs\, values\, and ideas with students. \nSara Lynn enjoys cooking\, gardening\, visiting with friends\, singing\, and being outdoors. Sara Lynn is married to Barbie Levine and is Savta to Ruby and Lucy. \n\nSuggested Donation\nWe welcome your generous support to help sustain this class and future courses. \n\nRegistration Form\nClick here to register. \n\nLearn More\nLearn more about FolkLab\, our current classes\, and our Engage! Day of Learning.
