DESCRIPTION:Register for classes\nat:(http://jlearn.online/)**_  \, or call\n248-205-2557._** \nDear Detroit Jewish Community and beyond\, I love knowing that JLearn is more\nthan a place to take a class\, it is a place to connect\, explore\, question\, and\ngrow together. In this moment of rising antisemitism\, polarization\, and\nuncertainty\, being part of an informed and connected Jewish community matters\nmore than ever. \nJewish learning offers grounding\, meaning\, and a way to stay connected to both\nidentity and\ncommunity when so much feels unsettled. We believe learning is one of the\nstrongest\nresponses to difficult times. Through study\, conversation\, and shared\nexperience\, we deepen\nnot only knowledge\, but also connection to one another and to Jewish life\nitself. Whether your\ninterest is Jewish history\, current events\, sacred texts\, culture\, Israel\,\nspirituality\, or the arts\, JLearn\noffers a welcoming place to engage and grow. I truly believe that Jewish\neducation belongs to\neveryone\, at every level and for every interest. \nOur classes are dynamic\, accessible\, and led by outstanding instructors who\nbring warmth\,\nscholarship\, and creativity to every session. Whether in person or on Zoom\,\neach class is designed to spark conversation\, curiosity\, and meaningful\nconnection. \nThe Detroit Jewish Community is vibrant and resilient\, and JLearn is one way\nto find your place within it. People come for the learning and stay for the\nrelationships they build along the way. We invite you to join us\, find your\npeople\, and be part of a community that learns\, questions\, and grows together.\nWith warm regards in hopes of seeing you soon. \nShelley Wish Chaness\nSenior Director JLearn The J – Detroit \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/16934 \nClick here to join the Zoom livestream.\n[]()

SUMMARY:HOME
DESCRIPTION:Both breathtaking and hilariously relatable; we are all at times a little\nhomesick. PUSH Physical Theatre—the multi award-winning team behind Orlando\nFringe’s “best play” HYDE and the Off-Broadway sensation GENERIC MALE\n—create a visually stunning\, acrobatic dreamscape where we long for home while\naching to escape it. \nThrough a spectacular fusion of movement\, illusion\, and dynamic physicality\,\nHOME  unpacks the fragile\, shifting nature of home. As the architecture\naround us collapses\, and reassembles\, we struggle to hold onto a place that\nwon’t stay still. \nFoundations crack\, rooms shift\, walls bend\, doors vanish. This heartwarming\nstory explores the tension between house and home—what we build\, what we lose\,\nand what we’re always searching for. Where do we belong? And what happens when\nthe place we call home refuses to stay the same? \nRun Time: 80 – 90 minutes\nAge Range: All ages \nSupported by __Irwin and Sadie Cohen Fund \n“Darren Stevenson\, Heather Stevenson and Ashley Jones show supreme command\nof their bodies as they tumble\, balance and support one another …”\n– Orlando Sentinel\n“…perfect metaphor-in-motion… myth and magic… super-strong acrobatics…”\n– City Newspaper\n“The most fantastic\, emotional event I have ever experienced. Absolutely\nremarkable”\n– Audience rave \nABOUT PUSH AND THE PERFORMERS\nIntense athleticism\, gravity-defying acrobatics\, and soulful artistry are the\ntrademarks of award-winning\, genre-defining PUSH Physical Theatre. Founded in\nRochester\, NY in 2000 by husband-and-wife team\, Darren and Heather Stevenson\,\nout of a desire to “push” the boundaries of conventional theatre\, PUSH has\nsince earned an international reputation as one of the world’s leading\nphysical theatre companies. \nOver the last two years PUSH has performed at the International Festival for\nJewish Theatre in Jerusalem\, appeared Off-Broadway at the Soho Playhouse\,\ngarnered multiple awards including “International Fringe Encore Series”\, four\n“Best of the Fest” awards as well as “Critics Choice Best Show” at Orlando\nFringe and “Outstanding Production” at Ottawa Fringe\, a “Jenny” in Winnipeg\nand “Media Pick” with a 5 out of 5 star review in Edmonton.\nPUSH has also been featured in acclaimed collaborations with the Grammy-\nwinning Ying Quartet\, the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra\, and Pulitzer\nPrize-nominated composer Ricardo Zohn-Muldoon’s two multi-media operas.\nPUSH also produces its own works including RACE or ‘You’ve Seen Me Before\,’ in\ncollaboration with artist Hassiem Muhammad (online 2020); Generic Male: Just\nWhat We Need\, Another Show About Men (2021); Someone No One Can See\, a\ncollaboration with transgender artist Penny Sterling (2022); and Hyde (2023).\nPUSH has been recognized for service to the community through the Rochester\nCommunity Foundation’s 2023 Ames-Amzalak Award for Nonprofit Excellence\,\nUniversity of Rochester’s Lillian Fairchild Award\, Performing Artist of the\nYear Award from the Arts & Cultural Council for Greater Rochester\, and the\n“Community of Color” Black History Month Anton Germano Dance Award\, honoring\nadvocates for an inclusive and diverse community who affect positive change.\nPUSH engages underserved populations in areas with some of the highest poverty\nrates and too little access to the arts\, and provides workshops for children\nwith disabilities\, the National Technical Institute for the Deaf\, youth\ninvolved in the juvenile justice system\, and adults in senior facilities.\nTo serve historically excluded communities\, we are well aware of the need to\nseek out sources\, inspiration and material beyond the lived experiences of our\ncore company. Our creative consultants and focus groups include Black artists\nsuch as Thomas Warfield and Hassiem Muhammad\, transgender artist Penny\nSterling\, people from rural areas\, people with various disabilities\, members\nof the National Technical Institute for the Deaf\, and members of the\nUniversity of Rochester Office of Diversity and Inclusion.\nMore about the show and it’s creators:\nTo be homesick may embody a longing for home—or feeling sick of home. Today\nmany people say they ‘don’t feel at home’. But what do we mean when we speak\nof home? Is it a place? Is it other people? Or do we carry home with us? Using\ndance\, non-traditional partnering\, mime and more\, Home(sick) will tell stories\nthat draw audiences into questions about home: Where do I belong?’ What makes\nus feel ‘at home’—or not? What responsibilities do I have to this home\, to\nthis community? \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/16761
