SUMMARY:Social Hour: Quilling Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join the J for an exciting hands-on paper quilling workshop where you’ll learn all about the intricate and beautiful art of folding\, rolling\, and shaping paper. Discover how to transform strips of paper into stunning designs inspired by classic Judaica with instructor Nikki Furlong\, owner of Simply Quilled Designs. \n \n\nAbout the Instructor: \nNikki Furlong is a self-taught paper artist and owner of Simply Quilled Designs. As a lifelong crafter and artist\, she gained many of her skills through years of experimentation and exploration. She works primarily with paper\, using cut strips to create her work. This technique is known as quilling; a decorative art form popular during the Renaissance period. When Nikki discovered paper quilling in early 2000\, she was immediately drawn to the medium for its versatility\, which allowed her to utilize her art and craft background. \nNikki grew up in a small town in Minnesota and now lives in Bellingham\, WA. The Pacific Northwest has been an inspiration for her work; nature being a constant theme that is present in her series of trees\, plants and flowers. \nHer artwork has been exhibited at the Jansen Art Center in Lynden\, WA\, Studio 103 in Seattle\, WA\, Edmonds Arts Festival in Edmonds\, WA and Schack Art Center in Everett\, WA. In addition to creating\, she has taught paper quilling classes and was a visiting artist teacher for a nonprofit organization in the Caribbean that teaches and preserves traditional art and craft forms.

SUMMARY:From Trauma to Enlightenment: Howard Reich’s Conversations with Elie Wiesel
DESCRIPTION:Join us in conversation with award-winning journalist\, author and filmmaker Howard Reich. The son of two Holocaust survivors\, Reich grappled for much of his life with the inherited trauma of events he never experienced. He searches for meaning in his mother’s battle with the ghosts of her past and finds enlightenment from an unexpected source\, Nobel Peace Prize laureate Elie Wiesel. \nReich shares his personal journey and his intimate association with Wiesel during the last four years of the educator’s life. He discusses how that experience became the inspiration for an intimate musical drama\, The Dialogue of Memories\, with Reich’s words and music by Tom Cipullo. The opera\, commissioned by Music of Remembrance\, illuminates how we can reach understanding across generations and open doors of memory\, hope and compassion. The work receives its world premiere by Music of Remembrance on May 17\, 2026\, at Seattle’s Benaroya Hall. \nHoward Reich and Paul Regelbrugge (Holocaust Center for Humanity)\, moderated by Mina Miller\, Founder and Artistic Director of Music of Remembrance.

SUMMARY:AUTHOR TALK | Award-Winning Israeli Journalist Lee Yaron
DESCRIPTION:AUTHOR | Award-Winning Israeli Journalist Lee Yaron on “The Future of Israel – Hope and Resilience”   \nJoin us for an important presentation on “The Future of Israel – Hope and Resilience” with award-winning Israeli journalist Lee Yaron\, winner of the Jewish Book of the Year Award for her latest book “10/7: 100 Human Stories” and featured on Forbes’ coveted 30 Under 30 list for 2025. Moderated by Dr. Mika Ahuvia\, Associate Professor of Classical Judaism at UW. \nA radically passionate work of investigative journalism and political critique by the acclaimed “Haaretz” reporter\, “10/7: 100 Human Stories” is Yaron’s definitive account of the 10/7 attacks told through extensive interviews with survivors\, the bereaved\, and first responders. It profiles the diversity of victims and survivors: from left-wing kibbutzniks and music festival partiers to radical right-wingers\, from Bedouins and Israeli Arabs to Thai and Nepalese guest workers\, from peace activists and elderly Holocaust survivors to Ukrainian and Russian refugees. \nAt a time when people are seeking a deeper understanding of the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and how internal political turmoil in Israel has affected it\, “10/7” takes a fresh approach\, offering answers through the stories of everyday people who lived tenuously on the border with Gaza. Rather than focusing on their last moments\, this award-winning book weaves together rich human stories with larger historical and political contexts. \n \nBook + virtual ticket bundle available (pickup or optional shipping available). Books ready for pickup before the event. \nSun\, May 3 @ 2:00 pm (Rescheduled from October 2025. Prior tickets have been transferred to the new date.)\nPresented via Zoom. Link shared 1 hour before showtime. \nPart of Chew on This! Speaker Series theme: Roots + Resilience. \nIn Partnership with Jewish Book Council. \n\nABOUT THE MODERATOR: Mika Ahuvia was born in Kibbutz Beit Hashita in northern Israel. Her scholarship bridges academic research and the lived experiences of Jewish communities. At the University of Washington\, where she is Associate Professor of Classical Judaism\, she guides students and community members into deeper engagement with Jewish history and tradition. As former Director of the Stroum Center for Jewish Studies\, she led the community through the aftermath of October 7\, mourning the loss of alumnus Hayim Katsman and coordinating learning opportunities for students\, faculty\, and university leadership. Ahuvia is the author of On My Right Michael\, On My Left Gabriel: Angels in Ancient Jewish Culture\, which recovers overlooked aspects of Jewish tradition. \n\nSJCC Virtual Event Details + Box Office Policies  \n\n ALL SALES FINAL | NO REFUNDS | NO EXCHANGES | NO CREDITS\n Ticket sales close and Zoom registration link emailed one (1) hour before showtime.\n Facility and ticket processing fees apply at checkout.\n Patrons agree to all SJCC terms and conditions above and at SJCC Box Office + Venue Policies.\n\nNeed Help?  \nContact BoxOffice@sjcc.org | 206-388-0833 (email best for a quick response!) \nVisit SJCC Arts + Ideas Box Office for full list of policies.
