Community Connections provides Jewish cultural, educational, and social programming for adults in the Stephen Wise Free Synagogue community.
Don’t miss this time to gather with new friends and old in a fun, casual atmosphere and to engage in lively conversation.
Join our monthly Short Story Group, where we read and discuss Jewish-themed material. Readings are distributed in person at meetings or emailed upon request. Suggestions for readings are welcome. Come every month or when you are able. New members are always welcome!
For more information and copies of the stories, please contact response@swfs.org or (212) 877-4050, ext. 280.
The Short Story Group meets every third Thursday of the month at 1:30 p.m.
Join our Book Club for an exploration of classic and contemporary Jewish literature. Come every month or when you are able. New members are always welcome!
See all of our upcoming Community Connections programming on our calendar. To learn more about Community Connections, contact response@swfs.org or (212) 877-4050, ext. 280.
