Adult Learning
Jewish learning never ends. We dig deeply to find answers to life's greatest questions. We want to raise the bar on how we live our lives by integrating Jewish insights and wisdom into ourselves.
From ongoing classes to visits from world-renowned scholars, authors and thinkers, JCOGS is a Beit Midrash, בית מדרש, a house of study and learning.
Seeking and questioning, cultivating curiosity, and listening to the wisdom of others—from ancient Biblical and rabbinic thought to contemporary teachers and our own inner wisdom. That’s learning for life.
