BLUE THREAD @ OJM Sunday March 18th





A new book and new fictional novelist will appear at Oregon Jewish Museum in NW Portland this Sunday at 2pm.


Ruth Tenzer Feldman has been writing books for some time but this is her first fictional novel. The book is a piece of historical fiction that features a time-traveling heroine.


The event will include commentary from some young women readers as well as the author. 
A tallit takes on an important role in the book. To celebrate that, local silk artist Diane Fredgant will also participate in this event and display some of her most colorful tallitot.


This is a special Jewish Arts Moments event.....and it is free!


OJM is located at 1953 Northwest Kearney Street

HEY, HEY, It's Esther Blueberger

This is a wonderful film! A coming of age story perfect for middle and high schoolers as well as adults.


We're showing it at OJM Sunday March 27th at 2pm. The film is free! We are asking for a $5 donation to pay custodians to clean the auditorium. 


This is an educational experience for all! Five middle schoolers have previewed the film and talked about their experiences with cliques, parents, bar & bat mitzvahs, friendships and more! They will lead a talk-back after the film. Their insights are amazing!


I think adults and kids will appreciate this opportunity to talk about growing up. It's a wonderful learning opportunity for  everyone!


Come join us! You will be glad you did!
