Thank you for your support of our Fall Festival series.

While we look forward to bringing you our 8-day Festival (May 14-21, 2026), please join us for

Film Shul: An interactive Zoom Presentation on Hollywood and The Jewish Experience.

On the second Thursday of the month, from December through March, Irv Slifkin and Laurence Lerman, two veritable film experts who’d rather describe themselves as “a pair of nice, middle-aged Jewish guys who write, review and talk about movies a whole helluva lot” will join us, live via Zoom, for conversations focusing on aspects of Hollywood and the Jewish experience. The topics this winter include:

Thursday, Dec. 11
THE 10 GREATEST JEWISH FILMS OF ALL TIME

Thursday, Jan. 8
FUNNY GIRLS

Thursday, Feb. 12
THE HOLLYWOOD BLACKLIST 

Thursday, March 12
SPIELBERG!

Where: Alexander Grass Campus for Jewish Life (2986 N. Second Street, Harrisburg)
Time: 12:30-2:00pm.  
Cost:  JFGH/JCC members $5; non-members $10 (Note: Senior Adult Club luncheon attendees’ tickets included with luncheon fee)
