SUMMARY:For the Sake of Argument: Workshop on Healthy Disagreement
DESCRIPTION:In a time when conversations about Israel and the Jewish world can feel charged\, emotional\, or even impossible\, this 90-minute interactive workshop offers practical tools for engaging across differences with confidence\, curiosity\, and care. \n\n\n\nLed by Abi Dauber Sterne\, co-founder of For the Sake of Argument (FSA)\, the workshop invites participants to practice having meaningful\, respectful disagreements — not just talk about them. \n\n\n\nUsing carefully crafted stories that provoke differing perspectives on issues central to Israel and the Jewish world\, participants will experience what it truly means to engage in a “healthy argument.” \n\n\n\nAbout: For the Sake of Argument is an educational initiative with Israel education at its core. FSA’s methodology centers on storytelling as a way to surface disagreement and teach skills for constructive dialogue. Participants learn clear intentions for both speakers and listeners\, helping transform disagreement into an opportunity for learning and connection. \n\n\n\nFee: $15 JCC members/$20 Non-members \n\n\n\nPlease support the Shlichut program and Israel engagement programs here. \n\n\n\nThis event is sponsored by The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington

SUMMARY:Double Take Israel - Marriage
DESCRIPTION:Join us for films\, stories\, and conversations that reveal Israel through cinema — complex\, emotional\, funny\, and real. A fresh way to experience Israel — watch\, talk\, and see life from new angles! \n\n\n\nIn February\, we’re diving into weddings in Israel — and everything around them — from the ceremony itself to the unique tradition of a full week of Sheva Brachot celebrations. \n\n\n\nFilm: “Seven Blessings” (2023)\, directed by Ayelet Menahemi.Summary: Marie was just two years old when her mother\, following a Moroccan Jewish tradition\, gave her to her infertile sister. Forty years later\, in 1990s Israel\, Marie returns from France to marry the love of her life\, led to the chuppah by her two “mothers.” Her lively\, loving family prepares a week of Sheva Brachot feasts in her honor — but Marie arrives carrying unresolved pain. As the food flows and the table fills\, old secrets surface\, tensions rise\, and buried truths demand to be heard. What unfolds is a bittersweet\, funny\, and deeply human story about family\, forgiveness\, and everything that was never said. \n\n\n\nPre-screening talk highlights:-What is Sheva Brachot and why does it last a whole week in Israel-How wedding traditions differ across Jewish communities in Israel-The fascinating Moroccan Jewish practice of “child lending” \n\n\n\nThis program is free. RSVP is required. We hope that you will support the Shlichut program and Israel engagement programs here.

SUMMARY:Holy Yums! Cook\, Taste\, and Share the Flavors of Israel
DESCRIPTION:Session 2 – Beit LaZayit: Olive Home Bite \n\n\n\nIn our second session\, we’re making Beit LaZayit — a warm\, comforting bite made of an olive wrapped in flaky\, golden dough. It’s the kind of small Israeli-inspired snack that is simple\, cozy\, and somehow always reminds you of home in a single bite. \n\n\n\nAs we prepare and bake\, we’ll also talk about the flavors that return us to familiar places — how a tiny bite can spark memories\, create a sense of belonging\, and remind us where “home” lives inside us\, even when we’re far away. \n\n\n\nThis program is free. RSVP is required. We hope that you will support the Shlichut program and Israel engagement programs here.
