Your Portal to Jewish Activities in Central New York

End Antisemitism Now, in collaboration with the Jewish Community Center of Syracuse, is proud to present the inaugural Syracuse Jewish Film Festival. Join us as we dive into independent films focusing on the Jewish culture and history. The Jewish Community Center welcomes the entire community as we embark on a journey through three films followed by panels and lectures by the directors themselves, who have some ties to the Syracuse Community. Each of the featured films will be shown on individual evenings throughout October and November. Tonight's screening is Unsettled, directed by Adam Hootnick.

Who doesn’t love knowing everything  will work out in the end? Join us at the JCC as we read feel-good books from various genres. This book club meets the third Sunday of the month. November 17 we're discussing Possession, by A.S. Byatt.

Sure you could knit, crochet, sew, embroider, sequin, draw, weave, and collage all by yourself. But where’s the fun in that? We’ll supply the space to create (and coffee!) and all you have to do is bring your current project. This group will meet at the JCC the third Sunday of the month.

Back by popular request, the JCC is hosting another Silent Book Club! Come see what the latest book club craze is all about. Read quietly with fellow attendees for the first hour and then mix and mingle for the last half hour.

Join the JCC as we welcome Mary Jumbelic for a presentation on her literary memoir Here, Where Death Delights.

Remember that book everyone was reading a few years ago that you meant to read, but never got around to? Us, too! Don't miss out as we read popular and best-selling books from years past. This book club meets at the JCC the third Thursday of the month, beginning November 21 at 6:30 pm. The first book is Magic Lessons, by Alice Hoffman.
