OCTOBER 6 • 2022 | 23

Silverman and participants whipped up 
holiday favorites and new taste sensations.
Two Sundays in October are flipped 
and offered as evenings of multi-
generational programming. A beautiful 
Sukkot Service and Pizza in the Hut 
dinner will take place on Oct. 9 at 5:30 
p.m. and a lively Simchat Torah-Fest 
celebration, featuring the Klezmer band 
Klezundheit, will bring in the holiday at 5 
p.m. on Oct. 16.
Mahj-O-Rama is coming Oct. 23. 
When asked about the program, presenter 
Carrie Keough explained excitedly, 
“Mahj-O-Rama will cover what it is, why 
it’s a game we play and how to play.” She 
went on to say, “Everyone is welcome, 
beginners to pros.” Mahj-O-Rama 
promises to be a click-clacking good time.
Rabbi Emeritus Arnie Sleutelberg 
presents “Five Aspects of Being a Jew” on 
Oct. 30. The rabbi will present a lecture 
followed with a Q&A. Describing the 
lecture, Rabbi Arnie framed it with “being 
a Jew is more than a religion … There are 

several portals through which Jews of all 
kinds can find meaningful connection 
to our tribe.” Expect a program with 
intellectual depth and the true welcoming 
spirit of Rabbi Arnie.
