Chavruta Learning
- Saturday 9:30 AM–10:45 AM Catalina Ballroom 2
- Sunday 10:00 AM–11:15 AM Catalina Ballroom 2
Come experience chavruta -- the traditional Jewish method of one-to-one learning. Chavruta means "friendship" or "partnership" and involves two people exploring texts together. We will examine ancient sources, modern scholarship, song lyrics and more centered on different topics within the theme of "One." Each day we'll cover a new topic; join for one or for all. Everyone is welcome, whether you have studied texts before or not. Knowledge of Hebrew is not required. Bring a study partner, or we’ll find one for you.
