SUMMARY:Wine\, Jazz & Poetry: A Tu B’Av Celebration of Love
DESCRIPTION:This mid-summer night\, we invite singles\, couples\, and friends alike to join us for a relaxed\, romantic evening filled with fine wine\, light appetizers\, soulful music\, and meaningful connection.What is love? Why do we seek it? And how has the Jewish tradition shaped our understanding of it over the centuries?For thousands of years\, Jewish poets\, musicians\, and mystics have grappled with these questions. Tonight\, we join that timeless conversation.The Evening’s Elements:Wine – Wine and love have always gone hand-in-hand in Jewish tradition—from the passionate verses of the Song of Songs and the Golden Age of Spain to modern Israeli poetry. We’ll keep the conversation flowing with a selection of kosher wines.Jazz – It is hard to imagine a warm\, slow summer night without the sultry sounds of jazz. Our musical journey will explore beautiful\, romantic expressions of love from some of the greatest masters of the genre\, including George Gershwin\, Irving Berlin\, Jerome Kern\, Jerry Bock\, Richard Rodgers\, and Cole Porter.Musical Guides:Vladimir Fridman – Guitar & VocalsBob Abbott – ContrabassChristine Kharazian – Violin \n\n\n\nPoetry & Discussion – From the first moments in the Garden of Eden to the modern verses of Yehuda Amichai\, we will travel through time to read and discuss a broad\, eclectic curation of Jewish love texts—both classical and contemporary.You – Bring an open heart and a desire to unwind. Come ready to relax\, enjoy great music\, and connect with a community of peers as we discover the many dimensions of love this Tu B’Av.Admission: $25 JCC Members / $30 Non-members
