History & Havdalah - Narratives of Beaumont's Jewish Legacy

Our next event, set for the evening of Saturday, August 30th, will be presented by Beaumont's Temple Emanuel.

Havdalah marks the end of Shabbat (the Sabbath) and the start of the new week, and is designed to be accessible to people of all backgrounds - including those whom are not Jewish.

As a member of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, I've enjoyed learning more about the sensory experience and meaningful ritual of Havdalah. Come learn with us!

Preceding the service will be a discussion of history, presented by the Beaumont Heritage Society. The 1929 Greek revival home housing Taluka Trades, celebrating adaptive reuse, was designed and built by the incredibly interesting and altruistic Dr. Phillip Greenberg. As such, 2398 Laurel serves as a fitting first venue for an ongoing narrative of Beaumont's Jewish community, their rich local history, and contributions to the city.

This event is open to all, and all are encouraged to join in learning and fellowship at this elegant and meaningful occasion.
