Limmud, the Hebrew word for “learning,” is a volunteer run celebration and festival of Jewish thought, arts, culture, life, learning and teaching. Participants come from a wide variety of Jewish backgrounds, affiliations, denominations, circumstances and orientations. The Limmud model is built on the premise that everyone has something to learn and everyone has something to share. What’s more,Limmud is a multi-generational, multi-denominational, diverse and inclusive event, welcoming all types of Jews and creating a community of learners.
A Limmud presenter is both a teacher and participant. As a presenter, you will offer a 60 minute interactive session on a topic of Jewish interest—cultural, religious, geographic, or political. Any topic that has a Jewish connection is fair game: pop culture, literature, music, film, history.
You can use our session submission form (click here). If your session is accepted, you must be registered for the conference before we can schedule your session.
Yes! Teens who wish to present should contact the Limmud Coordinator directly or submit their session online.
