Women’s League

This empowering Center community is an energetic mix of women of all ages: professionals, empty nesters, new mothers, and longtime members of Beth David. Its mission is to unite the women of the Center and Gordon School through education, social justice, and spiritual meetings – all while growing friendships and exploring Jewish identity. New members are always welcome! Obviously, we love a good program – we have a ton! The Women’s League sponsors many, and its members collaborate on even more, including:

Brotherhood

Where fun meets philanthropy. The Brotherhood organizes social events for its members (b’mitzvah men aged 21 and older) and the wider Center community. From fundraising campaigns to volunteering at other Center programs – like these! – the Brotherhood is an active group of community creators. Past programs have included Axe Throwing, Poker Night, and our International Shabbat trip, where Brotherhood members are able to go on an international trip to strengthen our bonds while visiting a Jewish community abroad at a subsidized rate!

Adult Study Group

Adult Study Group. Center BDCenter BD

We’re a community of life-long learners. Over the course of a year, you can take a multi-session course, select single classes, or attend to workshops and lectures. We also bring experts and teachers into our community, such as scholars in residence and master class facilitators. 

We believe learning leads to the inclusivity and belonging unique to the Center for Jewish Life at Beth David.

Classes and learning opportunities are offered on various days and evenings. They are open to the entire Center community at all levels of learning.
