Into reimagining Jewish education...and live near Ann Arbor, MI? Very excited about this lineup, especially presenting with artist Hillel Smith & Yiddish singer Anthony Tzvi Russell in a program exploring how art can challenge cultural assumptions. Free! https://t.co/2lEs7jnYdA

New piece in @ConversationUS today, a sneak peak at one of the chapters from my book on Jewish Sunday schools coming in August from @NYUpress. https://t.co/BYcEv0wACu

Here's a random titbit you didn't know you needed to know: Jews used to write catechisms. All the time. So glad to see article on Jewish catechisms finally out in print - a piece that I started way back back in graduate school: https://t.co/4PGGBRBuZN

The one where I weigh in on audience experiences at @Leopoldstadtbwy and @paradebway
