Just the Facts, Ma'am

Great news! The Calendar web page for this year's Jewish Arts Month (JAM) is done! Of course, the word 'done' is a fantasy, since this festival continues to grow and evolve, right up to the end. So i will continue to add events and update information, but the major part of the work is done. Phew!

And now is a good time to remind our readers about this amazing festival of arts - music, poetry, theater, visual arts, film, literature, photography and workshops. Special presentations by masters and amateurs, children and seniors, and everyone in between! Events are taking place all over Greater Portland, including some venues that might suprise you! This festival is so big, it can't begin to fit into one 'month.' So it spreads out over a period from February through early May. There's something for everyone, and for every schedule. And of course, plenty of exhibits and new work from ORA artists!

Wanna see what all the fuss is about? Check out the calendar, and start participating!

Party of the Year!

Mark your calendar: it's the PRE-JAM-SLAM, and you really want to be at this party! We're going to jump-start Jewish Arts Month (J.A.M.) with a big party at Mittleman Jewish Community Center on February 24th.

It's FREE, and we'll provide a sampler of the events featured in this festival celebration. Meet local actors, directors, writers, artists, musicians and more! Have a nosch and toast the success of this ambitious project. We'll probably begin at 7 pm... watch this blog for details as they evolve!
