Member-Led Learning Experiences
At CBSRZ, members share their knowledge and passions in peer-led courses and workshops. Embrace the joy of learning together, where everyone’s perspective enriches our vibrant educational tapestry.
Community-Led
While clergy-led programs are vital, we also recognize the wealth of experience and passion our members bring to the table. Community-led initiatives allow congregants to design and facilitate their own study groups, workshops, or discussion circles. Topics range from Jewish literature or Israeli history to cooking demonstrations and meditation practices.
By learning from one another, we create a collaborative, egalitarian spirit that encourages curiosity and mutual respect. CBSRZ offers logistical support and space, ensuring members have the tools they need to share their expertise. Whether you’re a lifelong scholar or simply eager to explore a new subject, Community Led programming invites everyone to broaden their horizons and foster deeper bonds within our synagogue family.
Our members are the core of our community and we love to offer member led classes. Please continue to check the listings below and our calendar for current classes.
