Adult Education

CAA is proud to offer a robust adult education program, including engaging classes covering a wide variety of topics, outside speakers, and collaborations with other community organizations. 

We meet regularly throughout the year to learn with Rabbi Alex. Topics have included, among others, the weekly Torah portion, the customs and significance of reciting Shema before bed, Jewish attitude on forgiveness and repentance and the Jewish laws regarding holding a minyan over Zoom.

Drop in any week or e-mail Rabbi Alex directly at rabbialex@caa-newburyport.org for the most up to date adult ed listings. All are welcome, no prior knowledge or familiarity with Hebrew or Jewish text needed.

We also bring in speakers with a wide range of backgrounds and expertise.  We have welcomed a doula, a soferet (female Jewish scribe), Rabbis and Professors to share their knowledge with our community.  We also enjoy a wide range of speakers and educational offerings from our institutional partners, including CJP and the Lappin Foundation.  Check out our CALENDAR for all the latest classes and learning opportunities!
