SUMMARY:Writers’ Aerobics
DESCRIPTION:Writers’ Aerobics\n \nWith Shashi Ishai \n12:30 Sunday 12 July \nShashi Ishai leads our monthly Writers’ Aerobics workshop\, a small\, intimate group of writers\, at all stages of developing writing skills. \nAll come from different backgrounds\, ages and life experiences.  In class\, from a one sentence “prompt”\, each writer focuses his/her creative juices and imagination and\, as a result\, no story is the same. Each has its own unique imprint. \nWe write within a nurturing\, supportive environment of fun-loving people. \nSounds daunting? \nEven if you have never written anything more than a shopping list\, Shashi dares you to come and see for yourself. You will not be disappointed! \nMembers: NIS 25 per session\nNon-members: NIS 35 per session \nPlease pay at the door or via ticket below.

SUMMARY:Through Margo Sugarman’s Lens - Photography Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Through Margo Sugarman’s Lens\nPhotography Exhibition \nThe iconic Kodak Instamatic was the first camera I picked up in the 1970s. I was around 8 years old and even back then I loved the excitement of seeing the developed photos. That feeling has never left me. At around that time\, my older brothers were experimenting with their Asahi Pentax and set up a dark room in the basement of our house. I can still smell the chemicals and remember my delight at seeing the ghostly images emerging and morphing into black and white shots. \nThere has virtually never been a time when I haven’t had a camera with me. I’ve always been happier behind the camera than in front of it. Travel\, friends\, family\, pets\, and later\, my children. When my son became a baseball player and my daughter a dancer\, it was natural for me to become the “photographer mom”. That’s when my love for action photography developed\, and I started taking it more seriously. \nToday\, dance photography is my main focus – both live action and in a studio. I relish the challenge of capturing the apex of a dance move during a show when you only have one chance at it\, of finding the right balance between the changing lighting and letting in enough light to make the optimal picture and stop the action at its peak. \nTravel photography\, with an emphasis on the Tuscan countryside and villages\, isn’t far behind. The beautiful stone alleyways\, the rolling hills\, the iconic Cypress trees\, are great subjects. And they stand perfectly still\, so taking that picture is a far less heart stopping endeavor. \nWith the Canon EOS R6 Mark II digital mirrorless camera I have today\, I’ve come a long way since my Kodak. I hope you enjoy the images I’ve selected out of the thousands that I’ve shot over the years. \nPlease call 098330950 during office hours 08:30-12:30 to make sure the hall is open for viewing the exhibition. \nThe Berkowitz Marcus Hall is available for exhibiting art works and photography. If you or someone you know is interested in exhibiting artwork in our hall\, please contact info@netanyaaaci.org.il. \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
