February 14, 2023

To celebrate Valentine’s Day, we are revisiting Season 1, Episode 3 of The Kibitz podcast, originally aired in February 2016. Host Dan Crane asks, “What is love, anyway?” Howard Jones didn’t know back in 1983, and Jews have pondered the same question as far back as Jacob and Rachel. Join Crane on a journey into the heart of what makes our hearts aflutter. Featuring guests: Mishy Harman (Israel Story), Rabbi David Kasher, Moshe Kasher, Janice “Nanna” Lubin (Dan’s 95 years young nanna), Larry Smith, Joel Stein and Jeff Goldblum playing some Valentine’s Day Jazz.

Reboot Ideas Presents: The Art of Visual Activism

Photographer Gillian Laub, whose exhibition Family Matters, is currently on view at The Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco, joined curator Maya Benton on March 12 to explore two decades of Laub’s work and what it means to be an artist in this moment of increasingly polarizing politics. Gillian and Maya examined what’s at stake and what we can do to ensure a thriving future for Jewish voices and perspectives. This program is supported by the Jewish Community Federation and Endowment Fund. This conversation is the first in a 2023 Reboot Ideas series of three events in the San Francisco Bay Area, supported by the Jewish Community Federation and Endowment Fund. The series, “Art as Counterpoint to Antisemitism” foregrounds the role of arts and culture as acts of resistance to a rising tide of antisemitism. Watch the event here.
