SUMMARY:Shabbat Dinner at Flor Coffee and Books with Oneg
DESCRIPTION:We’re gathering again for Shabbat at Flor on June 5th.\nWhat made our first Shabbat so special was the mix of familiar faces and new ones—people who already love this tradition\, alongside others who were experiencing this kind of gathering for the first time. That felt deeply meaningful to us.\nAs we continue building this at Flor\, we’d love to thoughtfully expand this community—welcoming those who cherish Shabbat\, as well as those simply curious to experience it in a warm\, welcoming setting. We’re also grateful to once again be partnering with Oneg\, whose beautiful Shabbat collection will be part of the evening. \n \nAccommodations: None \n \nOrganization: Oneg \n \nLivestream or Virtual: No\, it’s not

SUMMARY:Exploring the Blurry Borders of Eastern Europe with JRI-Poland and JGSGW
DESCRIPTION:Zoom meeting\, free for members of JGSGW. Nonmembers may register to attend for a fee of $10. \nThere is an old Jewish joke that “my grandpa” was born in Poland\, went to school in Russia\, became bar mitzvah in Hungary\, married in Austria\, died in the USSR and is buried in Ukraine — but never left town during his life! Europe’s changing borders and empires may make it difficult for you to decide where to look for your family’s records in the Old Country. Understanding what’s in the JRI-Poland database and learning how it might help your own family research is the subject of this lively presentation which will include demonstrations and end with a questions-and-answers session that is usually quite lively. Bring your questions and ask an expert on the JRI-Poland website and database! \nThis one-hour program\, conducted over Zoom at 1:30 pm EDT\, is free for members. This is one of the many activities that is a benefit of JGSGW membership. \nRobinn Magid is the president of JRI-Poland.org and has served as a JRI-Poland volunteer for 31 years. She is the project manager for JRI-Poland’s “Next Generation” website and database and is a popular speaker and writer on Jewish Genealogy topics. Robinn has served as the chair of two landmark international conferences for the IAJGS (International Association of Jewish Genealogical Societies) Warsaw (2018) and the first virtual IAJGS conference (2020 during Covid). She is a recipient of the IAJGS Lifetime Achievement Award and of a civic medal from her paternal grandmother’s hometown of Lublin\, Poland.\nCost Range: $0 – $10 \n \nAccommodations: Captioning \n \nOrganization: Jewish Genealogy Society of Greater Washington \n \nLivestream or Virtual: Yes\, it is

SUMMARY:Torah ROCKs: Exploring Wisdom in Stone with the Den Collective
DESCRIPTION:What can stones teach us about memory\, resilience\, and the stories we carry? \nJoin us for an afternoon of creativity\, learning\, and connection as we explore the role of stones throughout Jewish tradition. Together\, we’ll engage with Jewish texts and discussion that invite us to reflect on the ways physical objects can hold meaning\, mark moments of transformation\, and help us remember where we’ve been. \nAfter learning together\, we’ll move into a hands-on rock painting experience\, creating our own meaningful pieces inspired by the themes we explore. \nWhether you love creative projects\, meaningful conversation\, or simply gathering in community\, this is an opportunity to slow down\, reflect\, and create something beautiful together. \nNo experience necessary. Everyone is welcome. This gathering will take place in Montgomery County\, with the specific location and additional details shared with registrants after the registration deadline. \nSign Up by June 3 \n \nAccommodations: None \n \nOrganization: The Den Collective \n \nLivestream or Virtual: No\, it’s not

SUMMARY:Iron Sharpening Iron: The Art of Jewish Disagreement with the Den Collective
DESCRIPTION:Jewish tradition holds a long and rich history of sacred disagreement: of questioning\, debating\, challenging\, and refining ideas in the pursuit of deeper understanding. In this gathering\, we’ll explore what Judaism teaches about productive disagreement: the balance between conviction and humility\, the importance of openness and restraint\, and the moments when debate can lose its moral center. \nTogether\, we’ll engage with Jewish wisdom and meaningful conversation around how we navigate differences in our relationships\, communities\, and daily lives. How do we disagree without losing one another? What does it mean to sharpen each other thoughtfully and compassionately\, rather than tear each other down? \nWhether you love spirited discussion or are simply curious about Jewish approaches to dialogue\, disagreement\, and growth\, this gathering offers space for reflection\, learning\, and authentic conversation in community. \nNo experience necessary. Everyone is welcome. This gathering will take place in Silver Spring\, Maryland. Specific location and additional details will be shared with registrants after the registration deadline. \nSign Up by June 24 \n \nAccommodations: None \n \nOrganization: The Den Collective \n \nLivestream or Virtual: No\, it’s not
