ALI is thrilled to introduce master story-teller and educator, Cantor Marcia Lane, who will lead a 4-week survey course on Jewish Stories and Jewish Storytelling - from the Bible to the Borscht Belt. All written materials will be provided.  Week 1 (“In the Beginning…”) will focus on Judaism’s earliest stories found in the Tanakh and Midrash – many of which are monotheistic retellings of great tales from other cultural traditions.   Join us on Zoom.

The Jewish Collaborative of Orange County innovates, supports and collaborates on community programming that enriches the landscape of OC Jewish life and encourages individuals, couples and families to connect their passions and purpose with Judaism.
