The Jewish Dialogue Group invites you to our fall benefit, featuring a performance of Galeet Dardashti's multi-media concert and storytelling extravaganza, "The Naming," plus songs by Chana Rothman!

When: Sunday, October 17 -- 6:00 to 8:30pm (doors open at 6, show begins at 6:30)

Where: The Rotunda, 4014 Walnut Street in University City
(Easily accessible by SEPTA, low-cost parking available across the street at Fresh Grocer.)

Please come and:

  • Hear amazing music from Middle Eastern Jewish traditions, in Hebrew, Aramaic, Persian, and Arabic
  • Listen as the stories of the women of the Bible are woven together with an Iranian Jewish family's tales of women breaking the rules, and stories of women in the Middle East today fighting to have their voices heard
  • Eat delicious food
  • Celebrate and support the Jewish Dialogue Group's efforts to foster constructive dialogue within Jewish communities about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict

Chana Rothman will open the show with spirit-raising, soul-calming, rabble-rousing bilingual English/Hebrew music that includes folk, worldbeat, reggae, and hip hop influences. Light dinner, desserts, and drinks will be available for sale. Children welcome!

Suggested donation: $18 to $100 (More if you can, and no one will be turned away for lack of funds.)
