SUMMARY:FL JCC Virtual Author Event - Ilan Evyatar
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our virtual FL JCC Author Series with Ilan Evyatar\, Target Tehran; How Israel is Using Sabotage\, Cyberwarfare\, Assassination to Stop a Nuclear Iran and Create a New Middle East \nTar­get Tehran pro­vides a com­pre­hen­sive account of how Israel’s decades-old intel­li­gence agency\, Mossad\, has con­duct­ed oper­a­tions with the pur­pose of pre­vent­ing Iran from becom­ing a nuclear pow­er. Those oper­a­tions came to a head when\, in 2018\, Mossad agents stole two truck­loads of files that dis­closed the coun­try’s clear vio­la­tions of the 2015 nuclear deal it had signed. \nAlthough some details are still clas­si­fied or not yet released for attri­bu­tion\, the authors\, who are inves­tiga­tive reporters\, tell this remark­able sto­ry as ful­ly as pos­si­ble. Their nar­ra­tive reads like a spy nov­el: it is dra­mat­ic and riv­et­ing from the start. \nThe authors fin­ished writ­ing Tar­get Tehran in April 2023\, and they end their account with praise for the achieve­ments of Israel’s “elite spy agency.” One can­not help read­ing these words with Hamas’s Octo­ber 7 attack in mind. Notwith­stand­ing Mossad’s suc­cess­es\, the authors may now find them­selves inves­ti­gat­ing what at this stage appears to be a mon­u­men­tal intel­li­gence failure. \nllan Evy­atar is a for­mer edi­tor-in-chief of the award-win­ning mag­a­zine The Jerusalem Report\, and a for­mer News Direc­tor\, colum­nist\, and senior con­trib­u­tor at The Jerusalem Post. \n

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition Opening - The Art of Letters: Journey into Being
DESCRIPTION:Please join us at the Schwartz-Jacob Gallery -for the opening reception of “The Art of Letters: Journey into Being\,” on Thursday\, February 27th at 7:30 pm\, featuring the work of artist Igal Fedida. This event is free and open to the community. \nA visionary series by Igal Fedida\, exploring the profound connection between the spiritual\, material\, and transformative power of language. Inspired by the sacred wisdom of letters\, particularly the Hebrew alphabet\, the series views letters as elements of creation\, carriers of divine energy\, and bridges between the finite and infinite. Each piece invites reflection on personal and collective journeys into existence and self-discovery. Crafted with materials like wood\, metals\, resin\, and pigments\, the artworks embody a tactile and layered storytelling approach. These materials symbolize the interplay of physical and spiritual dimensions\, evoking contrasts and harmonies in life. Rich with symbolic imagery—Hebrew letters\, geometric patterns\, organic textures\, and flowing lines—the series expresses themes of unity\, transformation\, and the eternal cycle of being. Through The Art of Letters: Journey into Being\, Fedida offers a profound meditation on communication\, intention\, and the unifying language of art. This collection celebrates the creative process and invites viewers to explore deeper connections between identity\, spirituality\, and the infinite possibilities within letters\, symbols\, and human experience.

SUMMARY:In Conversation With Adam Nimoy - The Most Human
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, March 4\, 2025 at 7:30 PM for an engaging and transformative evening for a conversation with Adam Nimoy\, son of Leonard Nimoy\, on his moving memoir. \nIn his mem­oir\, The Most Human\, Adam Nimoy details his life as the son of one of the most rec­og­niz­able actors of our time. Nimoy\, too\, was caught between two worlds: there was the per­ceived per­fect fam­i­ly of acclaimed actor Leonard Nimoy\, and there was Nimoy’s own real­i­ty of a con­flict­ed home life. While a sim­i­lar mem­oir might be adver­tised as a “tell-all” about a pub­lic fig­ure\, Nimoy takes care to be as fair as pos­si­ble to his father\, the oth­er impor­tant peo­ple in his life\, and him­self. He describes his child­hood dur­ing the era of Star Trek\, his career shifts\, his expe­ri­ence start­ing his own fam­i­ly\, and his recov­ery from addiction. \nA book signing will follow after the event. \nIn the end\, Leonard and Adam Nimoy were able to rec­on­cile in their own ways: Nimoy learned to let go of resent­ment\, and his father made an effort to sup­port his son dur­ing a dif­fi­cult and emo­tion­al time. Fea­tur­ing Jew­ish themes and bib­li­cal allu­sions to the Akedah (Bind­ing of Isaac) and Jon­ah and the Whale\, The Most Human describes the ever-chang­ing nature of par­ent-child rela­tion­ships — both in and out of the spot­light. The book reminds us that our rela­tion­ships are always going to be com­pli­cat­ed\, but that does not negate their sig­nif­i­cance in our lives. It reminds us that\, though we might strug­gle to admit it\, our par­ents are just as human as we are.  \nAdam Nimoy is a grad­u­ate of UC Berke­ley and Loy­ola Law School. He left the prac­tice of law to pur­sue a direct­ing career in net­work tele­vi­sion. He direct­ed the crit­i­cal­ly acclaimed film about his father For the Love of Spock.
