Annual Lecture Series.

About the Annual Lecture Series

Our annual lectures and pre-holiday seminars are community staples, providing insight and inspiration as we progress through the year.

Kick off the year with our annual Rudoff Lecture and Elul Intensives to help prepare for the High Holidays. We then have programming throughout the year—no matter the time of year—including our annual Bohm and Rapoport Lectures along with lectures and seminars around each one of the holidays. Check out our upcoming events below!
