SUMMARY:Vermont Jewish Poets - Summer Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Vermont Jewish Poets – Summer Gathering\nOpen to Vermont poets who self-identify as Jewish\nA day to read our poems\, to write and to deepen connection \nJuly 27\, 2025\n10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.\nBeth Jacob Synagogue\n10 Harrison Ave.\, Montpelier\, VT 05602 \nBeth Jacob Synagogue is wheelchair accessible\, microphones will be used \nMore information: Email Judy \n  \nPLEASE REGISTER \n\nWhat to expect:\nRound-robin reading in which each person will read one poem to the group \nSpecial reading by Featured Poet Jane Shore \n \nJane Shore’s six books of poems have garnered many prizes—including the Juniper Prize (1977)\, the Lamont Prize (1986) and the 2010 Poets Prize. She’s \nbeen a Guggenheim Fellow\, a Radcliffe Institute Fellow\, and a Hodder Fellow at Princeton. Widely anthologized\, her poems appeared in The New Yorker\, The New Republic and The Yale Review. That Said: New and Selected Poems\, was published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt in 2012. A Professor Emerita at the George Washington University\, she lives in East Calais\, VT. \nGenerative workshop by Jane Shore: Good Poets Steal \nT.S. Eliot wrote\, “Immature poets imitate; mature poets steal; bad poets deface what they take\, and good poets make it into something better\, or at least different.”\nIn this workshop we’ll explore a process of deep learning from poems that we love\, basing our own drafts on works we admire. I will share a poem of mine I consider almost done and the original it is based on\, with revisions I made over time until it became my own. But how much is mine\, how much remains of the original—and at what point does it cross over enough to become a real poem\, a poem that sounds like me; an echo\, not just a copy? As the mud is still wet\, I’ll invite your suggestions for further changes. I find making these hybrid/homages to be an exciting way to stretch my poetic muscle in terms of subject matter\, vision\, language and tone\, and to open up new vistas when I am stuck on what to write. I’ll provide a list of favorite “Imitations” by others. \nPlease bring a poem you love\, are intrigued by\, wish that you had written yourself. It can be a poem by another poet written in English or a translation. Bring these to work with during our session\, plus anything that also may inform the poem—the backstory\, wiki\, etc. Bring your computer or paper and pen\, whatever your normal process is. By session’s end\, you may well be on your way to have a workable draft to take home. \nI find this quote by Robert Lowell from the introduction of his book\, Imitations\, to be helpful in this process: “Boris Pasternak has said that the usual reliable translator gets the literal meaning but misses the tone\, and that in poetry tone is of course everything. I have been reckless with literal meaning\, and labored hard to get the tone. Most often this has been a tone\, for the tone is something that will always more or less escape transference to another language and cultural moment…I believe that poetic translation—I would call it an imitation—must be expert and inspired\, and needs at least as much technique\, luck and rightness of hand as the original poem.…I have been almost as free as the authors themselves in finding ways to make them ring right for me.” Though Lowell writes of translation\, we can use his approach to make our own ”imitations” ring true for us. \nBook swap\, your own or books you’d like to trade \nTime to schmooze and move around \nBYO brown bag lunch\, fruit and water supplied

SUMMARY:Minyan (Online Evening)
DESCRIPTION:Ohavi Zedek offers regular minyan services to meet the worship needs of our community and especially to aid those members of our community who are reciting Kaddish in memory of a recently deceased loved one or on a Yahrzeit. Services are held Sunday-Thursday evenings at 7:00 on Zoom. Ohavi Zedek’s minyan is traditional and egalitarian. Mincha and Maariv are recited at evening services when the services begin before dark\, only Ma’ariv is recited once we reach the point in the year when services start after dark. We also hold Sunday Shacharit at 8:45 AM in person and on Zoom. \nIf you are planning to attend a service to recite Kaddish please fill out this form to let us know so we can make sure there is a minyan present. \nClick here to access the Weekday Siddur Lev Shalem used during our evening Minyan services. \nZoom link is below under the heading ‘Website’. \nPlease make your full first and last name viewable on Zoom\, so we know who you are and can admit you. \nResources: \nWhen Should I Say Kaddish for Yahrzeit? \nThe Mourner’s Kaddish: A Memorial Prayer in Praise of God by My Jewish Learning \n  \n

SUMMARY:Israeli Dancing - Drop In
DESCRIPTION:Israeli folkdance is a joyous folk art form that is easy to start and difficult to stop. It draws from many cultures and expresses itself in dances that range in complexity and speed. See this article for more information. \nJoin hosts Adele\, Lani and Mitch and a friendly friendly group of people that gathers periodically on Zoom or in person to enjoy the folkdances of Israel! \nWe mostly dance around a circle so no partner is required. We have a large repertoire of beginner-friendly dances. New dancers are encouraged to come at the beginning of the session to benefit from instruction. Please wear shoes with clean soles. \nThis program is free with an optional donation. \nRegister Here \nBecause of ongoing concerns about covid and other circulating viruses\, the group would greatly appreciate attendees wearing a high quality mask such as N95 or KN95. \n
