SUMMARY:Sisterhood and Brotherhood Monthly Canasta
DESCRIPTION:Come play Canasta with TBS Sisterhood and Brotherhood on the third Thursday of every month from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. Canasta is a game played with four people\, so we need groups of four to be able to make a table. Please sign up for either advanced beginner or experienced player in order. DO NOT skip to the second table at your level if the first table is not filled. If the second table does not fill up but you want to play\, try to find others to join your table\, otherwise assume your game is not happening. If you sign up but can no longer play\, please find someone to replace you. Canasta is free for TBS members. Non members are welcome to join Sisterhood or Brotherhood to play. Join Sisterhood here: t-b-s.me/sisterhood. To join Brotherhood\, please reach out to Chuck Wilson at brotherhood@tbsneedham.org.

SUMMARY:Jewish Settlement in North America & the Importance of Mobility
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we explore how American Jewish life has been built\, rebuilt\, uprooted\, and re-rooted over 250+ years\, tracing a story of mobility\, reinvention\, and opportunity from colonial port cities to today’s suburbs and Sunbelt hubs. On January 4\, Pioneers and Port Cities looks at the Sephardic and Ashkenazic families who first established communities in Charleston\, Savannah\, Newport\, New York\, and Philadelphia\, and how they navigated religious freedom\, mercantile networks\, early institutions\, and legal rights in a Protestant-dominated society; on January 11\, Expansion and Upheaval follows the period from the Revolution through the Gilded Age\, including Jewish participation in the Revolution\, German Jewish migration and economic ascent\, Civil War complexities\, and the rise of philanthropy and national Jewish organizations; on January 18\, From the Lower East Side to Main Street explores mass Eastern European immigration (1880–1924)\, urban growth\, labor and tenement life\, the flowering of Yiddish culture\, and the push west and south to places like Boston and beyond; and on January 25\, From Suburbia to Sunbelt surveys 1924–2024—immigration restriction\, postwar suburbanization\, the rise of new Jewish centers outside major cities\, the growth of communities in Los Angeles\, Houston\, Phoenix\, Atlanta\, Boca Raton\, Austin and more\, and what American Jewish mobility may tell us about the next chapter ahead. Featuring Professor Jonathan Sarna of Brandeis University. Presented by the Orange County Community Scholars Program and sponsored by Adult Learning. Questions? Contact Adult Learning.

SUMMARY:Jewish Settlement in North America & the Importance of Mobility
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we explore how American Jewish life has been built\, rebuilt\, uprooted\, and re-rooted over 250+ years\, tracing a story of mobility\, reinvention\, and opportunity from colonial port cities to today’s suburbs and Sunbelt hubs. On January 4\, Pioneers and Port Cities looks at the Sephardic and Ashkenazic families who first established communities in Charleston\, Savannah\, Newport\, New York\, and Philadelphia\, and how they navigated religious freedom\, mercantile networks\, early institutions\, and legal rights in a Protestant-dominated society; on January 11\, Expansion and Upheaval follows the period from the Revolution through the Gilded Age\, including Jewish participation in the Revolution\, German Jewish migration and economic ascent\, Civil War complexities\, and the rise of philanthropy and national Jewish organizations; on January 18\, From the Lower East Side to Main Street explores mass Eastern European immigration (1880–1924)\, urban growth\, labor and tenement life\, the flowering of Yiddish culture\, and the push west and south to places like Boston and beyond; and on January 25\, From Suburbia to Sunbelt surveys 1924–2024—immigration restriction\, postwar suburbanization\, the rise of new Jewish centers outside major cities\, the growth of communities in Los Angeles\, Houston\, Phoenix\, Atlanta\, Boca Raton\, Austin and more\, and what American Jewish mobility may tell us about the next chapter ahead. Featuring Professor Jonathan Sarna of Brandeis University. Presented by the Orange County Community Scholars Program and sponsored by Adult Learning. Questions? Contact Adult Learning.
