In celebration of its 85th year of continuing education programming, SAS will be hosting an afternoon of learning for the greater community on Sunday, December 3, 2023. The in-person event will take place at Temple Israel New Rochelle, conveniently located at 1000 Pinebrook Boulevard. The keynote for the event is Jonathan Eig, whose latest book, King: A Life, is a New York Times bestseller. He will discuss this new biography about Martin Luther King, Jr., in conversation with cultural historian Lori Rotskoff, moderator of many of our book discussions.
Additional plans for the day include the debut of a figurative SAS Hall of Fame to honor those whose efforts have contributed to SAS’s success and longevity, as well as lectures by art and architectural historian Francis Morrone and Nicholas Birns, author and scholar of modern world literature. Attendees will also enjoy the musical stylings of pianist Jonathan Cobert, who provides the live entertainment in the popular Movement to Music classes.
More details on the celebration and how to register will be available soon.
