EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING
SEMINARS
Inca Jews in Peru. The last Jewish village in Azerbaijan. The Jewish hill tribes of northeastern India. Visit them all in one stunning photographic presentation by world traveling speaker, writer and photographer Bryan Schwartz. Bryan has lived and prayed with Jewish communities in 30 countries and more than 100 towns and villages on five continents. The slide presentation shares some of the most exciting photos and stories from his book with collaborators Jay Sand and Sandy Carter, Scattered Among the Nations.
Aside from a generalized, world Jewish communities presentation, Bryan serves as a scholar-in-residence, conducting a series of three lectures over a weekend to meet the needs of a community. For example, he might provide a lecture (or drash) during religious services, provide a program for children at Sunday school, and then make a generalized community presentation. Bryan’s talks can focus on a specific demographic (catering to children, to a men’s club, or to a women’s organization), or a particular country or region.
