SUMMARY:The New Syria: New Enemy or New Friend
DESCRIPTION:Syria is one of the most consequential and least understood countries in the Middle East\, and few Western Jews have had the opportunity to witness its dramatic transformation from the inside. Join Rabbi Asher Lopatin for a fascinating firsthand account of his groundbreaking visits to Syria in 2025\, beginning just months after the fall of the Assad regime and continuing through two subsequent missions. Rabbi Lopatin will share the remarkable story of how these journeys came about\, what he encountered on the ground\, and whether a new chapter in Syria’s relationship with the West\, and perhaps even with Israel\, may be possible. Drawing on candid conversations with government officials\, business leaders\, educators\, cultural figures\, and ordinary Syrians from all walks of life\, he will offer a rare glimpse into a country long viewed as one of Israel’s most implacable adversaries. Combining personal stories\, political insight\, and on-the-ground observations\, this promises to be an extraordinary look inside a nation at a historic crossroads. Presented by the Orange County Community Scholars Program and sponsored by TBS Adult Learning. \nRabbi Asher Lopatin is the rabbi of Kehillat Etz Chayim in Detroit and the Director of Community Relations at the Jewish Federation of Greater Ann Arbor. He is a Rhodes Scholar with an M.Phil in Medieval Arabic Thought from Oxford University. He has rabbinic ordination from Rav Ahron Soloveichik and Yeshiva University and is a permanent member of the Council on Foreign Relations. Rabbi Lopatin is married to Rachel Tessler Lopatin and they have four children.

SUMMARY:Exploring the Masterpieces of Art
DESCRIPTION:Join acclaimed artist Tobi Kahn for a captivating three-part adventure through the artistic soul of Italy\, where every stone\, canvas\, and canal tells a story. From the eternal layers of Rome\, where ancient sculpture\, Renaissance genius\, and contemporary vision meet in the Vatican Museums\, Galleria Borghese\, Musei Capitolini\, Palazzo Barberini\, and MAXXI; to Florence\, the birthplace of the Renaissance\, where Michelangelo’s David\, Botticelli’s Birth of Venus\, and Brunelleschi’s soaring Duomo forever changed the way humanity sees beauty; to the magical waterways of Venice\, where Byzantine splendor\, Renaissance masters\, Murano glass\, delicate lace traditions\, and daring engineering created a city unlike any other. Together\, we will explore not only Italy’s greatest masterpieces\, museums\, and architectural wonders\, but also the artists\, patrons\, ideas\, and innovations that transformed Italy into one of the world’s most extraordinary centers of creativity and civilization.

SUMMARY:Get Out the Vote Postcarding Event
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in protecting reproductive freedom and marriage equality? You can make a difference. Join Sisterhood (address for the event will be sent to registrants) in postcarding to Virginia voters\, encouraging them to vote on important ballot measures. We are fortunate in Massachusetts to have strong laws protecting a woman’s right to have an abortion and individuals’ rights to marry the person they love. Citizens in Virginia are facing ballot measures that may impact their rights. Postcarding works by increasing voter turnout and ensuring that all voices are heard. We will provide the postcards\, voter lists\, pens\, and refreshments. We ask participants to bring postcard stamps if they’re able. If purchasing stamps would be a hardship\, we’ll provide them so that everyone can participate. Questions? Contact Sisterhood.

SUMMARY:TBS Welcomes October 7th Hero\, Nurse\, and Survivor: Nili Margalit
DESCRIPTION:On October 7th\, Nili Margalit was kidnapped from her home in Kibbutz Nir Oz and held in the tunnels of Gaza for 55 days. A pediatric nurse by profession\, Nili became a lifeline to fellow hostages—managing medications\, offering medical care\, and providing comfort under unimaginable conditions. During her captivity\, Nili drew strength from thoughts of her 8-year-old neighbor Carmel Bar’ad\, herself a survivor of October 7th. Born with autism\, epilepsy\, and a rare genetic condition\, Carmel’s life depends on stability\, specialized care\, and support. Hear Nili’s firsthand account of survival and help honor her bravery by supporting Nili’s effort to raise funds to help provide Carmel with the care she needs to heal\, develop\, and build a hopeful future. Carmel’s father\, Eyal Bar’ad will also be with us. Light refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:"Our Tears Are the Same": Bereaved Israelis and Palestinians Reach for Peace
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we welcome two inspirational speakers – Israeli and Palestinian – from The Parents Circle – Families Forum. The Parents Circle-Families Forum is a joint Israeli-Palestinian organization made up of more than 800 bereaved families. Their common bond is the loss of a close family member to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. But\, instead of choosing revenge\, they have chosen a path of reconciliation and of pursuit of a peaceful\, safe shared society in the Middle East. Tens of thousands of Israelis and Palestinians have been positively impacted by the work of The Parents Circle and by their shared embrace of the sanctity of human life.\nWe are honored to welcome Maayan Inon (an Israeli mother of two daughters whose parents were killed on October 7th) and Sima Awad (a resident of Beit Ummar\, north of Hebron\, whose brother\, at the age of three\, was killed). This promises to be a moving and meaningful evening. Light refreshments will be served.
