Get a Taste of Limmud NY on the Upper West Side

I’ve previously written about Limmud NY here and here. I’ve written about Limmud Philly here. And here at Jewschool, we also had a recent post about Limmud Boston, which is just getting started. Limmud started in the UK and is pretty much everywhere these days.

Limmud NY is an aggressively diverse community of volunteers (and four staffers, of which I’m one) bent on bringing together the most diverse group of Jews to learn from and teach each other one long weekend a year. Registration is open now for our sixth annual conference over MLK weekend.

But before that, you can get a little Taste of Limmud NY at our evening-long event on the Upper West Side next week. There’ll be learning, teaching, shmoozing, eating, Jewing, etc.

Details are here. Register here. The event costs $10, which you can pay at the door.

"I may attack a certain point of view which I consider false, but I will never attack a person who preaches it. I have always a high regard for the individual who is honest and moral, even when I am not in agreement with him. Such a relation is in accord with the concept of kavod habriyot, for beloved is man for he is created in the image of God." —Rav Joseph Soloveitchik
