Adult Education Programs

Joshua ben Perachya advised: "Get yourself a teacher; acquire a friend to study with you..." (Pirke Avot 1:6)

The Adult Education Program of Temple Israel seeks to broaden the outlook of our members by offering diverse programs in Judaic historical studies, cultural and general interest topics. Programs are offered at various times of the day and evening so as to accommodate the scheduling needs of the congregants.

Check our calendar for the latest dates and times.

Please contact the Temple Office at 914-271-4705 to register or for further information.
