SUMMARY:Art Class - with Ruth Lenk
DESCRIPTION: Art Classes With Ruth Lenk \n9.30 Wednesdays \nForget that Art enhances fine motor skills\, hand-eye coordination\, problem solving skills\, lateral thinking\, complex analysis and critical thinking skills. Art is fun! And you don’t need to have any experience to produce beautiful work. \nI’ve heard that there are two steps to success: 1. Start 2. Carry on. \nTake that first step by joining our Art class. We meet every Wednesday morning from 9.30-11.30. \nThen\, work with me to develop the techniques you want to master: pencil\, watercolors\, chalk\, pastel\, acrylic\, collage. I am an experienced artist and teacher (let’s not count the years – but over 40) and I want to help you learn to express yourself artistically in a supportive and encouraging environment. \nMembers: NIS 60 per lesson  \nNon-members: NIS 120 per lesson \nPayable at the Box Office per four weeks \n

Witness how one fabric transforms into many masterpieces\, celebrating community\, craftsmanship\, and the joy of quilting.\nAll are welcome (check with Netanya AACI at 09-8330950 for opening hours) – bring a friend and let the colours inspire you. \nAccent Quilters: Committed to making the world more beautiful\, one stitch at a time. \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________________________________________\nThe Berkowitz Marcus Hall is available for exhibiting art works and photography.\nIf you are interested in exhibiting your artwork in our hall or if you know of someone who would like to show his or her pictures\, please contact info@netanyaaaci.org.il

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

SUMMARY:Book Club - The Last Rose of Shanghai by Weina Dai Randel
DESCRIPTION:Book Club -The Last Rose of Shanghai by Weina Dai Randel\nLed by Marcy Manas and Liz Morley\n16:00 Tuesday 26 May \nOur Book Talk meets once a month. Books are available to borrow from the Gura Family Memorial Library. \nOur May choice is The Last Rose of Shanghai by Weina Dai Randel. \nIn Japanese-occupied Shanghai\, two people from different cultures are drawn together by fate and the freedom of music in 1940. Aiyi Shao is a young heiress and the owner of a formerly popular and glamorous Shanghai nightclub. Ernest Reismann is a penniless Jewish refugee driven out of Germany\, an outsider searching for shelter in a city wary of strangers. He loses nearly all hope until he crosses paths with Aiyi. When she hires Ernest to play piano at her club\, her defiance of custom causes a sensation. His instant fame makes Aiyi’s club once again the hottest spot in Shanghai. Soon they realise they share more than a passion for jazz\, but their differences seem insurmountable and Aiyi is engaged to another man. \nMembers NIS 25      \nNon-members NIS 35 \nPurchase tickets below\, contact the Box Office 09-8330950 or pay at the door.

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

SUMMARY: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 31 May \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
