Clash of the Zionists!
Join us this Sunday, either in person at the Shul or online via zoom, on Sunday April 27th at 11am, as Brandeis University scholar Gilad Cohen presents “The Clash of the Early Zionists.”
If you are familiar with Zionism's popular history, but open to critically assessing your ideas and opinions in light of academic sources, you will find this an engaging event.
Admission is free. Tickets are required. Donations are welcome.

Last week we had our first chametz-burning and marshmallow-toasting social event at the Shul. This week we share an online scrapbook of wonderful event photos. Click here to enjoy the scrapbook. If you also took photos, please send them to publicity@adamsstreet.org so we can add them to the scrapbook. Thanks. The historic Adams Street Shul has so much to be proud of! Now we have one more "First in Newton" in our history! |
Picnic With The Trees! |
 |
|
Join us on Sunday afternoon May 4 for our annual Picnic With the Trees. This event is for all the Jews of the Greater Boston area. This event has been missing since Covid struck, but this year we are restoring it. We will gather in the yard of the Wagner Family, at 202 Chapel Street, in Newton. Bring your own picnic lunch. The Adams Street Shul will provide desserts and drinks. The Wagner Family will provide bunnies for kids to pet and feed. Hashem will provide the beautiful weather* and fruit trees. There is a blessing that we can say only once a year.(at most) when we first see two (or more) different kinds of fruit trees in bloom simultaneously. At the picnic, guest rabbis will share thoughts on trees. And then we will all get to say the blessing over the trees together. Participation is free. Donations are appreciated. To help us plan for the desserts and drinks and seating, please visit https://picnic-with-the-trees. * In case of bad weather, we will hold the event at The Adams Street Shul, and you can do a "brive-by berachah." I that case, don't bring a picnic lunch; the Shul will provide a kosher/dairy lunch. If unsure, visit this website to check on the location.
