SUMMARY:Adult Education Program: Women Artists Series
DESCRIPTION:(Adult Education Event)\nThawing the Chilly Climate: The Mary H Dana Women Artists Series at 50 \n\n\nThis illustrated talk\, by Dr. Ferris Olin\, will provide an overview of the oldest continuously running exhibition space in America for emerging and established women artists\, founded in 1971 by Highland Park native and MacArthur Genius\, Joan Snyder. The Mary H. Dana Women Artists Series\, with its galleries in the Douglass Library\, has had a long and distinguished history. Its curators have organized shows for more than 700 women artists. This talk will present that history and introduce some of the illustrious artists who have participated. \nDr. Ferris Olin is Distinguished Professor Emerita at Rutgers University\, where she was the co-founder and co-director (with Judith K. Brodsky) of the Rutgers Center for Women in the Arts and Humanities\, and The Feminist Art Project\, an international collaboration to make visible the impact of women on the cultural landscape. She also established the Miriam Schapiro Archives on Women Artists at Rutgers as well as the Margery Somers Foster Center\, a research center focused on documenting women’s leadership in the public arena. \nOlin served as Associate Director of the Institute for Research on Women and earlier\, Director of the Art Library. She was curator of the Mary H. Dana Women Artists Series at Rutgers from 1995-2006 and later (with Judith K. Brodsky) from 2006-2013; and with Brodsky\, Olin created the Women Artists Archive National Directory (WAAND)\, funded initially by the Getty Foundation\, a digital directory of archives where the papers of women artists active in the US since 1945 are located. \nHer most recent book\, co-authored with Judith K. Brodsky\, is called Junctures in Women’s Leadership: The Arts (Rutgers University Press\, fall 2018). Ferris Olin is the recipient of numerous awards\, among them the Women’s Caucus for Art Lifetime Achievement Award and the College Art Association Committee on Women’s Annual Recognition Award (now known as the CAA Distinguished Feminist Award). \nPlease contact Judy Stern or Claudia Farber for the Zoom meeting link. Open to the public.

SUMMARY:Adult Education Program: Film and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:(Adult Education Event)\nBreaking the Silence on the Occupation: Film and Online Discussion \n\n\nWe will be streaming this extraordinary 20 minute video by Israeli Human Rights Lawyer Michael Sfard. The video breaks down the Israeli government’s decades-long project to settle Palestinian land in the West Bank\, entrench permanent Israeli control\, and prevent Palestinian self-determination and statehood – essentially to erase the green line (which has not appeared on Israeli maps for decades). \nIt is a terrific legal/emotional/historical video. Debbie Schlossberg from Central Jersey J Street will moderate the discussion. \nPlease contact Judy Stern or Claudia Farber for the Zoom meeting link. Open to the public.

SUMMARY:Adult Education Program: Rutgers Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:(Adult Education Event)\nRutgers Film Festival Online Discussion \n\n\nThis pandemic year the Bildner Center is presenting the annual Rutgers Jewish Film Festival (RJFF) both at theaters and online\, Nov. 7-21\, 2021. The Peretz Planning Committee has selected two films for an online discussion: \nWet Dog. 103 min. This was chosen to be the opening-night film of the festival by the RJFF Selection Committee. Based on a provocative autobiography\, this moving film explores complex questions of cultural and religious identity during the raw and difficult teenage years. \nNeighbors. 124 min. The film was inspired by the director’s personal experiences as a 6-year-0ld living in a Syrian border village in the early 1980s\, and his bittersweet memories connect the Syrian tragedy to the present. \nGo to the Bildner Center website to read about the films and to purchase theater or online tickets.

SUMMARY:Friday-Night Program: Philip Orenstein\, Painting History
DESCRIPTION:(Adult Education Event)\nPhilip Orenstein: Painting History – a Virtual Discussion \n\n\nIn the summer of 1940\, after the German occupation of Paris\, the French liberal democratic government voted to establish a dictatorship. The facts about this regressive government and its treatment of its Jewish citizens were suppressed and hidden for nearly fifty years. \nIn the span of fifteen years between 1992 and 2007\, Philip Orenstein created seven large paintings called\, “Murals for the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Liberation of Paris\, 1944”. The paintings represent seven events during WW II\, mostly battles that were important to French citizens at the time and\, more specifically\, to France’s Jewish citizens. The paintings were occasioned by the fiftieth anniversary celebration of the liberation of Paris in 1944. Phil’s talk will be about the murals\, how he made them\, how they relate to his interpretation of the celebration of the liberation\, and their relevance to today. \nPhil was born in Paris and is a retired Professor of Art at Rutgers\, New Brunswick; and a long-time member of the Peretz School and Community. \n\n\nAdvance Registration is required. Please Register Here. After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information on how to join the meeting. \nWe hope to see you there!

DESCRIPTION:(Family Event) \nPlease join us for our IL Peretz Community Tu B’Shevat (zero waste) Seder. We will have environmental and social action activities. Singing\, eating\, and social action celebrating the environment and “The New Year of Trees” – Tu B’Shevat. This is a family event and all are invited to attend! \nPlease RSVP via e-mail to Stephanie Field or through Facebook. \nTu B’Shevat is known as The New Year for Trees. What a wonderful way to honor the true meaning of this holiday by minimizing the amount we throw away when it is over. Environmental issues and ways to make a difference for the planet have never been more important\, and this holiday provides us with a unique opportunity to set a tone for our school\, our students\, and community as a whole. \nThe idea here is to once again create a sustainable Seder\, one in which we really make an effort to reduce our waste\, pay attention to how much we use\, and the ways we can begin to make greater changes for the benefit of the earth. With a little effort and a lot of willingness to be slightly inconvenienced\, our Tu B’Shevat holiday will be one to remember! \nPlease plan to bring one reusable plate\, cup and utensil per person. Cloth napkins\, metal serving spoons\, bowls for each table\, cloth tablecovers\, and small compost buckets are most welcome\, as are any other ideas for reducing our waste. \nIf you would like to bring any of the above in addition to your own place setting\, please email the Sustainable Seder coordinator\,  Stephanie Field. \nLet’s go for minimum waste in 2021!

SUMMARY:Teen Group: Jewish Film Festival

Be sure to dress for the weather\, bring folding chairs if you have them\, and don’t forget your masks. \nOn Sunday\, November 8\, at 5:30 pm\, we’ll be screening Asia at the Pestka’s Backyard Theatre\, 2 Elbert Court in Highland Park.

Please RSVP to Rob Pestka. \nAsia.  Shira Haas (Unorthodox\, Shtisel) stars in this emotionally powerful drama about Asia and Vika\, Russian immigrants to Israel who are more like sisters than mother and daughter. Young mom Asia hides nothing about her work-hard\, play-hard lifestyle\, and expects the same openness and honesty from her teenage daughter. But Vika inevitably begins to rebel\, seeking privacy and independence\, all while experiencing the onset of a debilitating degenerative disease that makes her increasingly dependent. In her debut film\, Israeli filmmaker Ruthy Pribar candidly explores the challenges of motherhood and the power of love. \nIf you’re not staying for the film\, please plan to pick up your children at 7:30 pm.

SUMMARY:Teen Group: The Catcher Was a Spy
DESCRIPTION:(Teen Group Event)\nThe Catcher Was a Spy: Film & Discussion \nOver the past few years\, the Teen Group has enjoyed a number of films together\, mainly at Rutgers Jewish Film Festival\, our last being Tel Aviv on Fire\, which everyone thought was a terrific movie. So join us now for our next film—and discussion to follow: The Catcher Was a Spy\, the true story of Moe Berg  a Jewish kid from Newark who spoke 18 languages; attended NYU\, Princeton\, Columbia\, and the Sorbonne; played in the major leagues for 15 years and was known as the brainiest guy in baseball; and went on to become one of the most important spies in Europe for the U.S. during World War II. It’s a truly unique story. \nHow will we do it while self-isolating during the COVID-19 pandemic? Let me know ASAP whether you’d like to watch the movie online on Amazon Prime\, Apple TV\, or any other service you have access to\, and Peretz will reimburse you for the cost. We can also provide DVDs to those who don’t have access to an online movie service. Then we’ll get together by Zoom on Saturday\, May 9\, at 5:00 pm to discuss the film and contemplate volunteer work we can do during these times to help our community. \nDon’t miss this event!  Please RSVP to Rob Pestka now!
