Telling Jewish stories takes many forms

we all have a story

Storytelling is an art that takes many forms. Learn from visiting authors, read stories of impact, and watch films from around the globe alongside your community.

Program Benefits

Meet the authors who tell your favorite stories and learn more about their process and backgrounds.

Let us connect you with fellow book lovers to process stories as a community and learn from the experiences of others.

Enjoy community film screenings throughout the year at the JCC, or purchase tickets and join us for the Milwaukee Jewish Film Festival each fall to access films you can’t stream anywhere else.
