Dress up a little and join us for an amazing evening - just for students! - with comedian and author, Joel Chasnoff!

As part of our Friendsgiving Shabbat, enjoy an after-hours conversation with Joel to hear his personal stories from being a college student to lone soldier to making Aliyah, and more. As Chasnoff says: "When we laugh together, we are together!  Comedy is about more than just punchlines and jokes. It’s about connection."

This event is part of our "Israel at 75" year of celebration.

Shabbat menu: roasted turkey (or vegan Shepard's Pie), garlic mashed potatoes, gravy, herbed mushroom stuffing, green beans, salad, apple crisp
