How can storytelling be used as an educational tool for responding to the complexities of our time? Join The CJM and Jewish LearningWorks for a professional development session focusing on Jewish storytelling, the maggid tradition, and artistic interpretations that explore stories and their enduring morals for today. The session will include a presentation by Jhos Singer, a local maggid; gallery activities in Jewish Folktales Retold: Artist as Maggid; and a hands-on art-making experience led by Folktales artist Julia Goodman. Participants will also have the chance to see Sabbath: The 2017 Dorothy Saxe Invitational and hear about a Bay Area-wide student competition.
