SUMMARY:AUTHOR BOOK CLUB  | Elaine Culbertson\, "Mamaleh" Memoir
DESCRIPTION:For Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Remembrance)\, join author Elaine Culbertson for a virtual presentation and intimate book-club-style conversation about her gorgeous memoir\, “Mamaleh.” Reading in advance recommended but not necessary. \nIn “Mamaleh: A Lega­cy of Loss and Love\,” Cul­bert­son has cre­at­ed a new kind of Holo­caust sur­vivor sto­ry—a mem­oir that com­bines both her moth­er\, Dora Freilich’s per­son­al rec­ol­lec­tions of her life as a sur­vivor\, intertwined with her daughter’s reflec­tions on grow­ing up in a fam­i­ly that had expe­ri­enced the trau­ma of the Holo­caust. \nDora’s survival after two full years in Auschwitz was indeed a mir­a­cle\, and her beau­ti­ful­ly written mem­o­ries of that time and ensuing life built in America were her hus­band are too. Some­times fun­ny\, always poignant\, “Mamaleh” immerses read­er in stories and the chal­lenges of sur­vival\, immi­gra­tion and assim­i­la­tion as told by both moth­er and daugh­ter from the perspective of two dif­fer­ent worlds and a forged a rela­tion­ship of love and respect. \nHow to participate in Author Book Club?\nRead the book in advance: Purchase a book bundle (select pickup or pay for shipping) or buy a copy through Island Books (get 10% off when you mention “SJCC”) or some other way and buy a virtual event ticket to attend the author presentation. Reading the book in advance is not a requirement to attend. \nFREE for Jewish school educators and Holocaust Center trained teachers (and book discount offered). \n \nIn partnership with Holocaust Center for Humanity\, Jewish Book Council and Island Books. \nPart of Chew on This! Speaker Series theme: Blueprint for Belonging. \nView policies\, terms + conditions on our  SJCC Box Office + Venue Policies  page.    \n\nABOUT:\nFor many years\, Elaine Cul­bert­son served as pro­gram direc­tor of the Holo­caust and Jew­ish Resis­tance Teach­ers’ Pro­gram that pro­vid­ed pro­fes­sion­al devel­op­ment to more than 1100 teach­ers in its 36-year exis­tence. She works with teach­ers and stu­dents to con­nect the events of the past with the geno­cides of the present day. She uses the sto­ry of her own par­ents’ sur­vival as the basis for pre­sen­ta­tions on devel­op­men­tal­ly appro­pri­ate and moral­ly respon­si­ble ped­a­gogy\, and her own writing.

SUMMARY:EXHIBIT+SPEAKER | Michael Shapiro\, "Ketubah Renaissance"
DESCRIPTION:“‘Ketubah Renaissance is a gorgeous testament to the creative\, aesthetic\, and spiritual health of Jewish life in the late twentieth and early twenty-first century” – Anita Diamont \nIlluminating the contemporary revival and novel designs of the Jewish marriage contract\, Michael Shapiro’s exhibit and book “Ketubah Renaissance: The Artful Revival of the Jewish Marriage Contract” is a brilliant and beautiful showcase of the most innovative\, contemporary and artfully illustrated modern Jewish marriage documents. \nShapiro is the founder and CEO of ketubah.com\, an enthusiastic and inspiring guide through the history of the ketubah. As scholar Shalom Sabar notes\, the earliest illustrated marriage contract was produced in Austria in 1391. Sparked by the Spanish Expulsion\, the custom of decorative text spread across Europe with Ashkenazi and Sephardi Jews carrying on the practice even after they fell out of popular favor. \nBecause beautifying ketubot is in line with the Jewish concept of “hiddur mitzvah\,” the principle that a joyous commandment requires a physical object for its performance. In the past few decades\, advances in artistic technology have led to a resurgence in illustrated ketubahs\, including renowned artists\, leading to a contemporary revival of the artform. \nFrom paper-cuts to wood-cuts to AI-generated images\, “Ketubah Renaissance” weaves a tapestry of love between Jewish couples\, tradition and the covenant with Jewish people and G-d. \n \nExhibit reception + book talk: May 13\, 7 pm (ticketed)\nExhibit on display: April 1 – July 1 (drop-in) \nIn partnership with Jewish Book Council.\nBook sales + signing. \nPart of Chew on This! Speaker Series theme: Blueprint for Belonging. \nView policies\, terms + conditions on our  SJCC Box Office + Venue Policies  page.     \n\nABOUT:\nMichael Shapiro\, founder of Ketubah.com\, was a “Jewish day school nerd.” Always fascinated by languages and alphabets\, he has spent his life turning what others might call “personal weirdness” into something extraordinary. Since 1996\, he has shaped the development of contemporary ketubah art and helped 100\,000 Jewish\, interfaith and LGBTQ+ couples find their perfect ketubah (Jewish marriage contract).
