Kol Hadash: Chicago‘s home for Humanistic Judaism Home
KOL HADASH ADULT EDUCATION

Learning is a lifetime pursuit, especially at Kol Hadash. We want to know not only the stories and legends about Jewish origins and the Jewish experience, but the actual history as we can best discover archaeology, linguistics and other studies.

And our curriculum is not limited to Judaism. Our true goal is to be a well-rounded person, rooted in Jewish identity but open to the world around us. This is why philosophy, comparative religion, current events, literature, and science round out our regular and occasional offerings.

Kol Hadash serves a range of adult learners, from dabblers to diligent students.  Rabbi Chalom will conduct three courses of study this year:

  • Year 1 in the rabbi's two-year Introduction to Humanistic Judaism consists of the 2010-11 survey of Jewish History. These Monday-evening classes will be followed next year with courses on Jewish Culture and Secular Jewish Philosophy.
  • Wednesday Lunch & Learn: One-hour sessions providing food for thought in the middle of the week.
  • A Sunday-morning course that provides adults with insight into what our Sunday School students are learning: Sunday School for Adults.
All Kol Hadash Adult education classes are free of charge and open to the public. If you have questions or for more information, please email us or call 847-347-3003.
