Ongoing study of Jewish tradition, history, literature, and thought is a critical component of Jewish life, and a central, dynamic element of Jewish experience. Under the inspired leadership of Rabbi Emeritus Scott Glass and now Rabbi Caleb Brommer, our community has developed multiple opportunities and venues for us to engage Jewish texts and ideas. Adult Education classes are open to all members of the TBE community free of charge. Contributions to the Adult Education Fund support this program and are deeply appreciated. 

Registration is required, just click HERE to sign up electronically.  If you prefer, you may also call the Temple office at (607) 273-5775 any time and tell us which classes you'd like to attend.  Additional programs are being planned, so be sure to check back.  Questions?  Just email us at: adulted@tbeithaca.org
