Judaism Classes

Introduction to Judaism teaches beginners the basics of Jewish thought and practice. The class runs 16-26 weeks (depending on location) and presents a mix of study, discussion and practical experiences designed for all interested in exploring a Jewish life for themselves -- interfaith couples, non-Jews considering conversion, and Jews looking for adult-level basics.

A Taste of Judaism: Are You Curious? is a free, 3-session class for beginners -- Jewish or not -- that explores the topics of Jewish spirituality, ethics and community values. It is designed for those who would like to explore or re-explore the foundations of our tradition and are looking for an entry into Jewish life. 

Taste of Judaism Grants - Those congregations that are selected as program sites will receive full funding from the Union for advertising and honoraria for teachers in return for certain grant requirements and responsibilities. Download the application.
