SUMMARY:Book Club - Atonement by Ian McEwan
DESCRIPTION:Book Club – Atonement by Ian McEwan \nLed by Marcy Manas and Liz Morley \n16:00 Tuesday 24 February \nOur Book Talk meets once a month. Books are available to borrow from the Gura Family Memorial Library. \nOur February choice is Atonement by Ian McEwan. His symphonic novel of love and war\, childhood and class\, guilt and forgiveness provides all the satisfaction of a brilliant narrative and the provocation we have come to expect from this master of English prose. \nOn a hot summer day in 1935\, thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis witnesses the flirtation between her older sister\, Cecilia\, and Robbie Turner\, the son of a servant. However\, Briony’s incomplete grasp of adult motives—together with her precocious literary gifts—brings about a crime that will change all their lives. As it follows that crime’s repercussions through the chaos and carnage of World War II and into the close of the twentieth century\, Atonement engages the reader on every conceivable level\, with an ease and authority that mark it as a genuine masterpiece. \nMembers NIS 25      \nNon-Members NIS 35 \nFor tickets contact the Box Office 09-8330950 or pay at the door.

DESCRIPTION:Harley Zipori – The Cassini-Huygens Mission: A Voyage of Discovery \n19:30 Wednesday 25 March POSTPONED \nThe planet Saturn is the jewel in the crown of the solar system. Situated in the remote reaches of the solar system\, far from the Sun\, Saturn has been a planet of mystery\, drawing the attention of astronomers ever since Galileo discovered the rings with his telescope. \nNASA’s Cassini spacecraft orbited Saturn for over a decade\, exploring the planet and its moons and making truly astounding discoveries that changed the way we think of planets and objects that orbit them. Cassini carried the Huygens probe that landed on Saturn’s moon Titan\, the first ever landing on any body in the outer solar system. \nCome join us for a voyage of discovery of how this marvelous feat was accomplished and what Cassini told us about Saturn\, its moons and its phenomenal ring system. \nArmed with a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering and an MS in Aeronautics and Astronautics from MIT\, Harley started working at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab in 1978. He spent most of his time there working on the Galileo spacecraft that eventually orbited Jupiter. Harley made Aliyah in 1981 and worked in the technology sector until retiring in 2019. He has been living in Netanya since 1984. He has an ongoing passion for all things astronomical and loves sharing it with others. \nMembers NIS 30 \nNon-members and Members at the door NIS 50 \nPurchase tickets below\, call the box office 09-8330950 or pay at the door.

SUMMARY:POSTPONED: Aron Heller - Zaidy’s Band: From Fighting Nazis to the Birth of Israel
DESCRIPTION:Zaidy’s Band: From Fighting Nazis to the Birth of Israel\nGuest Speaker: Aron Heller\n19:30 Sunday 12 April \nJoin journalist Aron Heller as he discusses his decade-long journey to uncover his grandfather’s hidden World War II past\, exposing a colourful cast of a Jewish Canadian “band of brothers” along the way. A powerful blend of memoir\, history and mystery\, the book reveals how even the humblest acts of World War II service shaped a generation and left a lasting impact for years to come. These men played key roles in the defining events of their time – fighting against Nazism and contributing to the establishment of Israel. Their voices\, however\, are not mere relics of the past. The dilemmas they faced – faith\, belonging\, courage and sacrifice – continue to resonate today\, shaping the Jewish experience as we confront rising antisemitism and the challenges facing the Jewish state. \nAron Heller is an Israel-based writer and broadcaster\, and the author of the book Zaidy’s Band\, The Untold Stories of a Jewish Band of Brothers in World War II. He focuses on technology storytelling and podcasting and was previously a long-time Associated Press correspondent and journalism lecturer. \nLearn more and order the book at https://aronheller.com/ \nMembers pre-paid NIS 40\nMembers at door and non-members NIS 60 \nPurchase tickets below\, call the box office 09-8330950 (Sunday-Thursday 8:30-12:30) or pay at the door. \nPrepaid tickets available until noon on the day of this event. \nNearby Parking: (one block north of Netanya AACI\, approach from the north on Shmuel Hanatziv to turn right into the driveway just before the traffic circle) \nUsing Waze: https://waze.com/ul/hsv8zcjvhf \nUsing Google Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/teDPagS7GRUi5VzY8 \n

SUMMARY:POSTPONED - Tiyul - Fighting for the State
DESCRIPTION:Tiyul – Fighting for the State\nThursday 16 April \nOur trip will begin at the Lechi Museum\, offering an introduction to one of the most controversial and determined underground movements during the British Mandate period. Through documents\, photographs\, and personal testimonies\, we will explore Lechi’s ideology\, methods\, and the difficult moral choices its members faced while fighting for Jewish independence. This visit will encourage discussion about radical resistance\, political vision\, and the complexity of historical judgment. \nAfter enjoying your packed lunch\, we will then continue to the Palmach Museum in Tel Aviv\, where the story expands to a broader collective experience. The museum’s immersive design and multimedia exhibits will place us alongside young Palmach fighters\, highlighting their daily lives\, training\, and role in the War of Independence. By encountering both movements in this order\, we will gain a deeper and more balanced understanding of the different paths taken toward the same goal. Together\, these visits will strengthen our appreciation of courage\, sacrifice\, and the foundations of modern Israeli society. \nMembers NIS 185 \nNon-members NIS 215 \nDepart heading south\, first pick-up:\nYoung Israel 09:55\nReturn: approx. 17:15 \nPurchase tickets below or call the box office 09-8330950 (Sunday-Thursday 8:30-12:30).
