Social and Cultural Programs

Program Committee

The Program Committee plans social and educational events that are of interest to Jewish adults. Activities such as trips to museums in Baltimore and Washington, D.C.; guest speakers on Jewish, secular, political and Israeli topics; and musical concerts are just a few of the entertaining events offered throughout the year. In addition, the Board of Trustees sponsors a yearly gala, an evening social event and fund-raiser to honor congregants who have made a difference during the previous year. Check out all our upcoming events.

Jews and the Civil War Series: Congregants Rita and Paul Gordon will talk about the Jews in Civil War Frederick, their involvement in some of the more notorious aspects of the war and the war's effect on the community.

Upcoming discussions

April 25: "Bending Toward the Sun," by Leslie Gilbert-Lurie. A powerful and inspiring mother-daughter memoir that explores an emotional legacy—forged in the terror of the Holocaust—that shaped three generations of lives.
