We are lucky to have two visiting presenters with fascinating lives and careers to explore!

Len Bell (whom most of you know as a celebrated art historian and author in his own right) will be talking to Sharon Mintz about her work as the Curator of Jewish Art at the Library of The Jewish Theological Seminary, her passion for illuminated manuscripts, and the role of art in Jewish life (plus her family connection to New Zealand).

This will be followed by a discussion with Rabbi Adam Mintz, about what inspired him to found Kehilat Rayim Ahuvim (a Modern Orthodox congregation on the Upper West Side); about the challenge of creating an educated Jewish community, what inspires him and his community and more.
