Join us for a reflective and engaging learning experience as we journey through Pirkei Avot (Ethics of Our Ancestors). This class will explore the timeless wisdom of Pirkei Avot—teachings on character, relationships, purpose, and how we live our values—through thoughtful text study and rich group conversation. Rooted in the spiritual rhythm of the Omer, a season of growth and self-refinement, the class offers space to connect Jewish wisdom to everyday living. No prior text-study background is needed—just curiosity and a love of meaningful discussion in community.

Solar Sages: A Jewish Yente’s Search for Meaning After a Solar Eclipse
Nina Perlove is originally from Ann Arbor, Michigan but has lived in Cincinnati for more than 25 years. She has a Doctorate in Flute Performance from CCM and her early adoption of YouTube earned her an international following and the nickname “The Internet Flutist.” She is Executive Director of the Foundation for Cincinnati Jewish Seniors and in her free time enjoys blending her love of Jewish culture and communal life with comedic storytelling. She describes her standup comedy style as monothematic, stream of consciousness, observational character comedy…with sing-a-longs and a shterai of yiddish.
Light appetizers and refreshments will be served during the show.
