Adult Education
At Congregation Or Veshalom, lifelong learning is a core value that enriches our community and deepens our connection to Jewish life. Our Adult Education programs offer a wide range of opportunities to explore Jewish texts, history, culture, and contemporary issues in a welcoming and intellectually engaging environment. Whether you’re joining a weekly Torah study, attending a guest lecture, participating in a Hebrew language class, or exploring Jewish ethics and philosophy, there’s something for everyone—no prior knowledge required. Come learn, question, and grow with us.
