SUMMARY:Melton School: Members of the Tribe: Cornerstones of Jewish Identity
DESCRIPTION:The Florence Melton School of Adult Jewish Learning engages adult learners in a life-enhancing study of Jewish texts and ideas that nurtures and deepens Jewish community worldwide. Through classes and travel seminars\, Melton learners find Jewish texts and ideas accessible and relevant to their lives. They become part of a worldwide movement of committed learners who are empowered to enrich Jewish life. \nThis class is 6 sessions\, and in them we will explore what it means to be Jewish today. In a world where identity is constantly questioned and belonging is complex\, the series offers a powerful exploration of what ties us together as a people. We’ll wrestle with big questions\, discover personal meaning\, and uncover how understanding “the Tribe”– our shared history\, values\, and responsibilities– gives us tools to respond to the challenges of our time\, both individually and collectively. \nThe class will meet Sunday mornings from 10:00 – 11:30 am starting October 11 at the Schaefer Family Campus. \nRegister

SUMMARY:The Art of Ritual: Ceremonial Objects of Artist Tobi Kahn
DESCRIPTION:On view at the Schaefer Family Campus November 2 – 30 \nExperience ceremonial works from the private collection of internationally acclaimed artist Tobi Kahn\, whose art has been exhibited in major museums and galleries around the world. Through contemporary ritual objects\, Kahn explores the intersection of Jewish tradition\, spirituality\, and the visual arts\, revealing what he calls “the spirit of our inner lives—mysterious\, resonant\, a sanctuary in a still struggling world. Judaism has emphasized words\, language and commentary\, I have found the visual elements of the tradition equally illuminating.” \nOn view throughout November at the Schaefer Family Campus\, this special exhibition invites us to encounter the sacred through the eyes of one of today’s most celebrated Jewish artists. \nThis exhibit is made possible by Friends of Music and the Arts and in partnership with the Boca Raton Museum of Art. \n  \n\nTobi Kahn is an internationally acclaimed painter and sculptor whose work has been featured in more than 70 solo museum exhibitions and is held in major collections\, including the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, The Phillips Collection\, The Jewish Museum\, and Yale University Art Gallery. For more than 40 years\, Kahn has taught at the School of Visual Arts in New York and has lectured internationally on visual language\, spirituality\, and art as a source of healing. His solo survey exhibition\, Tobi Kahn: Quest for the Essence\, opens at the Boca Raton Museum of Art in Fall 2026.
