Event Description

KFAR Jewish Arts Center &
Zeek: Journal of Jewish Culture and Thought present...

DVARIM (WORDS), featuring readings and performances by:
Kevin Coval, Yuri Lane, Menachem Cohen, Dina Elenbogen and Maya Escobar.

Dvarim is an exploration of written, spoken and performed words by artists examining the contemporary Jewish experience.

Words carry significant meaning in Jewish life. The universe was created by utterances, as were the laws received at Sinai. For millenia, Jews have read, debated, written and treasured words. We are, in short, people of books. In partnership with Zeek: The journal of Jewish Culture and Thought, KFAR Jewish Artds Center is please to present Dvarim (hebrew for words)- a series of readings and talks on contemporary Jewish literature, poetry, prose and fiction.

Join us for this first in a series of evenings of spoken, written and performed words.
