Jewish Experiences, a collaboration of Jewish Federation and The J, is launching the Miller Introduction to Judaism Program, an 18-week course designed for anyone who is Jewish or curious about Judaism.
This course will be held weekly at The J and is open to participants of all backgrounds, regardless of age, faith or prior experience.
Led by local Jewish clergy in the Kansas City area, the program will provide participants with a foundational understanding of Jewish history, culture, values and traditions. It’s a supportive environment where participants can learn, grow and connect with the community.
This course will be held at The J, with exact room locations shared upon registration. Sessions will take place on Thursday evenings across the following dates: Aug. 28; Sept. 4, 11 and 18; Oct. 9, 16, 23 and 30; Nov. 6, 13 and 20; Dec. 4, 11 and 18; and Jan. 8, 15, 22 and 29.
The full cost of the program includes access to weekly class materials, a textbook and exclusive bonus content from the Maas Center at American Jewish University. “On One Foot,” the official companion book of the Miller Introduction to Judaism Program, is included in the tuition fee. Need-based scholarships are available upon request.
Introduction to Judaism will include topics ranging from “Torah: Our People’s Story” to “Jews and Food” and more. No prior knowledge is needed.
This course is taught through a collaborative educational partnership with the Miller Introduction to Judaism Program of American Jewish University.
