Mommy & Me Rock Shabbat at Temple Kol Ami @ Temple Kol Ami Early Childhood Center
Jan 5 @ 9:00 am – 10:30 am

Join us every Friday morning for a fun and interactive, parent-child class at Temple Kol Ami’s Early Childhood Center. Mommy & Me Rock Shabbat is a wonderful opportunity for parents and tots to have fun and spend quality time together in a warm Jewish environment.

Mommy & Me Rock Shabbat is open to all moms and their children ages infant to 2 years.

More than just a play group or social event, this teacher-led class offers a wealth of opportunities for moms to connect and share experiences with each other while their children learn and grow.

Typical Mommy & Me activities include:

  • Jewish themes & songs
  • Music & movement
  • Arts & crafts
  • Interactive, developmentally-appropriate Tot Shabbat

Come meet other moms while kids learn about group dynamics and prepare for pre-school.

Mommy & Me classes are just $5 per class (or $35 for a 10 class pass) for Temple Kol Ami members.

Non-members pay $10 per class (or $75 for a 10 class pass).

Einstein and The Rabbi: Searching for the Soul @ Tucson Jewish Community Center, Ballroom
Jan 7 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm

When Rabbi Naomi Levy came across a poignant letter by Einstein, it shook her to her core. His words perfectly captured what she has come to believe about the human condition: that we are intimately connected and that we are blind to this truth. Levy wondered what had elicited such spiritual wisdom from a man of science. Come be inspired as Rabbi Levy speaks about her search into the mystery of Einstein’s letter and into the workings of the human soul. Following the talk, join us for a coffee and dessert reception. Childcare is available with advanced notice to Jennifer Selco at jselco@tucsonjcc.org.
