SUMMARY:Food for Thought: Drawn Together\, How Art Connects through Time and Space
DESCRIPTION:Drawn Together: How Art Connects through Time and Space  \nJoin author and artist Wanda Peretz for an illustrated journey into the vibrant world of Eastern Europe’s lost wooden synagogues. Through archival photographs\, Jewish folk art\, and her own creative story\, Wanda explores how the extraordinary painted ceiling of the Gwoździec synagogue connected her with two eighteenth-century Jewish artists and contemporary Israeli painter Boris Shapiro. Their art inspired her book\, The Ceiling\, and a continuing mission to bring this rich Jewish heritage to life through storytelling\, historical preservation\, and creative experiences for a new generation.

SUMMARY:Peer-to-Peer (P2P): The Power of Dreams in Later Life
DESCRIPTION:Come discover what your dreams still have to teach you! For decades\, Harry Moody has been recording his own dreams and helping others uncover the wisdom hidden within it.

Moody is former Vice President and Director of Academic Affairs at AARP Washington and is currently the editor of the popular Human Values in Aging monthly newsletter. In 2011\, he received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Society on Aging\, and in 2008 he was named by Utne Reader Magazine as one of “50 Visionaries Who Are Changing Your World.” He is the author of books and over 100 scholarly articles related to aging.

SUMMARY:Food for Thought: The Stories We Carry\, A Father-Son Conversation on Survival & Silence
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a unique and moving conversation between a Holocaust survivor and his son as they explore how family stories are passed down\, withheld\, and eventually uncovered. More than an author talk\, this intergenerational discussion reflects on one family’s journey from the Warsaw Ghetto to a new life in America\, the lasting impact of survival across generations\, and the importance of preserving testimony while firsthand voices can still be heard. \nDespite the weight of the subject\, the talk will be infused with humor\, resilience\, and humanity. \nTodd Diamond is a writer and former advertising copywriter. Auhtor of Pass the Trauma\, Please: My Father’s Not-So-Depressing Holocaust Memoir About Love\, Loss\, Laughter\, and Legacy.
